Station «Komsomolskaya» Circle Line is considered to be one of the most beautiful stations of the Moscow Metro. Furthermore, it is unique and meaningful decision.

With some reservations, we can say that its design is an evolution of the first colony of Moscow subway stations — Mayakovsky and paveletskoy Zamoskvoretskaya line.

Before we talk about the Komsomol, I want to briefly highlight the history of Moscow and St. Petersburg columned stations.

The first column of the station deep foundation in Moscow, the Soviet Union and in the world was Mayakovsky, opened September 11, 1938. It was a very bold Engineering Project. In general, despite the great architectural design, it was very difficult and time consuming to build.

Taking into account all of the erection of a column of the station, the engineers developed a more efficient design — Paveleckaia Zamoskvoretskaya line. But alas, the war began, and the course has brought about changes in the current view of the station. It was opened November 20, 1943 in a highly simplified form without the central hall, and only a part of the pylon (in fact — a small distribution Hall) near the exit to the city. The fact that all the metal complex column-purlins were captured by the Germans in Dnepropetrovsk.

It was only after the war, as a result of complicated reconstruction, which lasted for almost 10 years without a break of trains and passengers, it was converted into a dvuhzalnoy of colonies that we see now. The first phase of reconstruction was opened February 21, 1953, and finally completed all the work was only by April 1959! And in memory of the original project, we remained old site near the exit to the station.

The next column was Kursk station Circle Line, opened January 1, 1950. The project, which stands alone, proved to be very difficult and time consuming to build, and then the tower such stations are no longer built.

For the first stage of the Leningrad subway have developed two unique projects column station. The first is based on the experience of already built Mayakovsky and paveletskoy. On it was built two stations, «Institute of Technology» and «Baltic». The second project was constructed station «Kirov Plant». What is most interesting, the project will likely served as the basis for the development of the Moscow station column, and the St. Petersburg group eventually went their own way, developing your own style.

A common drawback of all these projects (except the «Kursk» and «Kirov Plant») is the presence in the roof struts in the middle of the hall way or another. The necessity of the device caused by the difference of the average thrust and lateral tunnels under the current size of their spans.

To solve this problem, a project was developed with the station increased average span arch. Here, thanks to the accepted ratio spans the middle and outer tunnels managed to achieve balance and refuse disposal upper spacers on average arch. For this project, you guessed it, was built station «Komsomolskaya» Circle Line.

The story of unique columned stations made on individual projects to be over. Painfully, they were expensive and time-consuming to build.

Stations have returned to the colony after almost 20 years, when it was designed and built by China Town. It was a breakthrough in the field of construction, but the project has successfully lived up to (for example, Dostoevsky and Tube stations are improved this kind). But it’s beyond the scope of this story. Can I somehow tell the story of the various structural types of stations, but for now let’s go back to the Komsomolskaya roundabout.

1. This column-station deep foundation, built on an individual project. The lining is made of cast iron station tubing and consists of two non-closed rings travel tunnels outer diameter of 9.5 m and a higher average set of circular shape with a diameter of 11.5 meters in the lower part of the middle tunnel provides a powerful reinforced concrete spacer plate thickness of 1 m, associated with the monolithic reinforced concrete foundations under columns.

2. Width of the side platforms (from the edge of the platform and to the axis of the column) adopted 2.8 m, and the average span of the hall between the axes of columns — 11 m to give greater rigidity side arches and tunnels to facilitate their work under the influence of a possible excess thrust in each ring lining the side tunnels at the level of support tubing installed metal struts of the I-beam number 36.

3. The increase in the average span of the hall and the elimination of the upper struts able to significantly increase the volume and height of the middle of the hall, which positively affected the quality of the architectural ofrmleniya station.

4. Metalwork station consists of dvuhstenchatogo upper run, columns and shoes. Runs in the static ratio is the length of the beam with dual console consoles at half span, based on box-section columns in steps of 4.5 m along the length of the station. Weight of one section of the metal is 4.5 m long, 52.96 m, and the total weight of the entire station about 3,300 tons In the photo you can see the process of the development of the breed in the core of the middle of the hall. Given the volume, the station was mounted excavator. You can see the entire column-set run-out in all its glory. And to the left, in the background, is seen not disassembled side tunnel. In general, the process of construction is no different from stages of construction, «Mayakovsky».

6. According to legend, the original design of the plant was a very thick pillars after finishing. It is said that the engineer was almost attacked with fists architect, well, I spent so much time on the development of the station to make the column as thin a s possible, and you are all hidden in the lining. As a result, the project architect rebuilt and is now facing the most pressed against the column.

19. I have this station is very strange and contradictory emotions. I think it is a masterpiece in terms of design, but from an architectural point of view, it crushes. Although the taste and color, of course.

moscowhite»There is the amusing story. Initially, the last two mosaic panels «Presenting the Guards Banner»And» Victory Parade «, made a great artist Pavel Korin, were as follows: the first of them is depicted Stalin transmitting banner soldier (behind the Generalissimo are his closest associates: Molotov, Beria, Kaganovich), and the second — the same person from the party leadership lined up on the mausoleum at the foot of which are thrown Nazi banners. After Comrade Beria lost confidence, and slapped his comrade Malenkov kicks (real poem of the time, I was telling a friend, whose grandfather once worked in the NKVD), A. Korinskiy on a panel with him unceremoniously removed the glasses. Then came the turn of Molotov and other faithful falcons. In 1963, it was time to global change: instead of «delivery Guards Banner» appeared «Lenin’s Speech before the Red Guards who go to the front,» and «Victory Parade» has turned into «Triumph of Victory.» Corinne, who was assigned to prepare new sketches of panels, made this composition such that it became as much as possible fragments of the former «Parade». With all the pictures are gone Stalinist Politburo (the Mausoleum was empty now), and in the foreground there was an allegorical figure: The Motherland with a palm branch of peace and sickle-hammer.

Mosaics in some photos: time, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight.

«As you know, mosaic composition Corina on Komsomolskaya tied in a single concept — they are the literal rendering of Stalin’s speech, delivered on November 7, 1941:» The war you are waging a war of liberation, a just war. Let inspires you in this war manly images of our great ancestors — Alexander Nevsky, Dmitry Donskoy, Kuzma Minin and Dmitry Pozharsky, Alexander Suvorov and Mikhail Kutuzov! Let overshadow you victorious banner of the great Lenin! «. For those proletarians who are not sticks in the art of metaphor, it Generalissimo was carved on a marble board that hung to the right of the stairs. Now from it were only plastered crooked hole. «

27. In the triangular curved frames, based on a set of base and rising to a quarter of its arc, depicted the military attributes — banners and weapons (shields, helmets, swords, arquebuses, muskets, swords). The authors of these images — SM Kazakov and A. Sergeev.

Two other ornaments: time and two.

28. In my view, the station was unlucky in that it is an area of three stations, although it is specifically built for large passenger. Now it has grown to 110 million people and the beauty of the station is just lost on this background.

There, in the tunnels near Komsomolskaya I shot this video epic, nostalgic about the days when I used to climb to the subway is not always legal. :)

Today opened the «Alma-Ata». ‘m Preparing a post on it. Just finally opened a second exit from the «Marina groves.» And, according to rumors, opened the registry office in the egg on the picturesque bridge. But what about the latter is not very sure.
