Preservation and modern use of historical buildings in the city development of Voronezh
The problem of preserving architecturally significant historical buildings is considered on the example of the city of Voronezh, taking into account the town planning features. The examples of combining historical buildings and modern high - rise buildings, which testify to the architectural degradation of the urban environment, are shown. On the example of the preserved fragment of the front wall of the historical buildings of the bakery complex No. 1, the physical and mechanical characteristics of the materials of the masonry of the wall - brick and masonry mortar - were instrumentally defined in order to determine the technical condition of the wall and the possibility of its further use. The experimentally determined high values of the physical and mechanical parameters of the brick and masonry mortar of the preserved facade wall of the historic building destroyed in 2020 made it possible to draw a conclusion about the possibility of using the wall as an object of exhibition or museumification in the volume of public space of the proposed new development.
