3 MOSCOW URBAN FORUM is an anniversary year not only for the Forum: this October marked the 5th anniversary of Sergey Sobyanin's election as the Mayor of Moscow. Therefore, the Moscow Urban Forum's agenda was focused on the capital's experience in urban development for the past five years, in particular, aspects of the usage and adaptation of the best international practices for megacities as well as new projects and prospects to be debuted in the immediate future. "The city has been gaining dynamics and now holds a leading position. In Moscow we only had a couple of years to introduce reforms that took European cities decades to implement. Creating a truly comfortable city involves a standard set of efforts. It means to maintain coherent development and advanced transportation capabilities, comfortable public spaces, and a whole range of other actions that we are not going to get into right now, but they are also extremely important." Sergey Sobyanin, Mayor of Moscow "Large cities have all but exhausted their ability to grow by infill development. The scope of engineering capacities is limited, and most construction sites are already in use. Integrated development projects make it possible to meet the development challenges large cities face by creating a modern high-quality urban environment for residents and avoid problems associated with high-density development." Mikhail Men, Minister of Construction, Housing, and Utilities of Russia
