In contrast to the static monuments of the past, Ioganson had invented a mode of construction that was dynamic, adaptable to all kinds of purposes (Vladimir Mayakovski quickly perceived its potential use in bridges and other architectural structures), and highly economical (thus pertaining directly to the shortage of materials that was nearly bringing Soviet industry to a halt). Never mind, either, the amazing and frantic changes in Moscow in the last decade: a shopping mall across the street from the old Lubyanka prison, a touching museum carved out of the apartment where the poet Mayakovski shot his brains out in despair, outdoor cafes with Muscovites actually enjoying themselves in the Alexander Gardens near the Kremlin walls, political demonstrations of every stripe at the Bolshoi's own doorstep. |
