Georgian Towns in the 1920s–1930s. Some Observations Regarding the Local Trends in Soviet Urban Planning

The author looks at the specific features of urban planning in the Georgian Republic of the USSR in the 1920s–1930s, stating that the principal cities of the republic were rather late in adopting new urban planning ideas, compared to the capitals of its autonomous regions. The general plan of Tbilisi, worked out by the Ukrainian Socialist Republic’s Ukrainian State Institute of Projecting (Giprograd), is being studied in the paper, as well as the reaction towards it among Georgian architects. A certain desire to work out a local approach to architecture and construction was evident, as well as a feeling of distrust towards the general reconstruction tendencies, considered to be too radical. In particular, one may mention the protests of the 1930s, when residential quarters, dating to the 18th–19th centuries, were demolished in the course of Tbilisi’s reconstruction, which contradicted the tendencies of the time.
