Minister of Sports of Tatarstan Vladimir Leonov spoke about the progress of construction in Kazan of a school named after the Olympic champion in figure skating Alina Zagitova .
It is planned that in the center of Zagitova there will be an ice rink, changing rooms, separate rooms for choreography and training, a cafe, as well as a place for holding press conferences. At the same time, Leonov admitted that the layout could change during construction work.
— There are no final preliminary designs yet. Technical specifications have been generated. The issue of document preparation and design is currently ongoing. This problem does not happen quickly and may take a few months. In an ideal situation, construction will begin and be completed next year.
Once the design is complete and the financing issue is resolved, construction will take approximately one year. Location: Portovaïa street. Given that this is an image project for us, we wanted a location closer to the center. This option suited everyone,” Leonov was quoted as saying by the Tatar-Inform correspondent.
It was previously announced that construction would be completed by summer 2024.
