The Kolodeznaya Street housing project is a constructivist residential ensemble built in 1927 in Moscow's Sokolniki District. Part of a pair of historically significant housing estates in the area, it represents the modernist ideals of early Soviet architecture, with forms and spatial organization characteristic of constructivism. Designated a historically valuable town-forming object, the project remains an important marker of 1920s residential development and stands as an architectural landmark within its district.
