  3. One of Russia's top development firms, Regions Group, will build a "Moscow version of Disneyland," a theme park under the brand of Hollywood's DreamWorks Animation in the south of Moscow, as the first step to setting up three such parks for a total of $1 billion, Vedomosti reported last week.

    A City Hall source said the park would be built in the Nagatino neighborhood, near the industrial zone of the former ZIL car factory, the newspaper reported.
    Next to the park, a new metro station Technopark will be built shortly on the green line.
    "The park will not be very big, so it may soon pay off," Rodionov said.

    - What companion property, except the indoor park will be in the project? What are you planning to build there and what rate investment in the project?

    - It is not just a theme park. We construct a large multifunctional complex, much of which takes the theme park, and the remaining area will be devoted to a shopping center, a concert hall, a hotel with 500 rooms and parking.
    first park we plan to open in St. Petersburg in 2015, the second - in Yekaterinburg in early 2016 year, and a third in Moscow - in 2017.
    On average area of these parks will be about 100 thousand square meters, and height - 35 meters. Budget that we spend on the implementation of each object, according to preliminary estimates will be at least $ 700 million.

    The Regions GC and the City Administration of St Petersburg signed a cooperation agreement to build a DreamWorks indoor theme park in the city. This memorable event took place within the framework of the 16th International Trade Fair for Property and Investment Expo Real 2013 held in Munich from October 7 to October 9.
    In turn, the Regions GC commits to complete the park construction before December 25, 2016
    The park development is an important investment project for the city, as the investment company is going to invest about USD 500 million in it. The project is being implemented under the exclusive licensing agreement between the Regions GC and DreamWorks Animation SKG, an American animation studio.
    Overall, at present, there are plans to develop three theme parks in Russia, one in each of the three cities – St Petersburg, Moscow, and Yekaterinburg. These are to become the largest indoor theme parks in Europe.
