The heads of the project showed Prime Minister Vladimir Putin the scale model of the complex, telling him which buildings would be prepared to be operational in 2010. Mayor Ilsur Metshin of Kazan said that the developers of the project used cutting-edge international solutions, consulting the designers of the Student Games Villages in Belgrade and Barcelona.
The complex will be located in one of the most convenient districts of Kazan, near the metro. A total of 64 facilities are planned to be constructed, including blocks of flats and academies of physical fitness and tennis.
Mr Metshin emphasised that after the village construction is completed Kazan State University would receive a new campus, comparable with the best international campuses.
The Prime Minister inquired when the living quarters would be ready for occupancy and was informed that students would be able to move into the residential quarters by September 1, 2010. The first two lines of the village include 20 blocks of flats with a total floorspace of 187,000 square metres, complete with all the necessary infrastructure and services. These buildings will accommodate over 7,200 students. The third line of the village and a training stadium are planned to be commissioned in 2011.
Prime Minister Putin also visited a furnished room at the new dormitory. The room has air conditioning, the internet and comfortable furniture.
