A model of a Soviet arctic port city for 4,000 inhabitants, shown at the Expo-67 in Montreal. Sputnik Digest, February 1968.
“The town has no streets, squares, or separate houses. It lies entirely under a cement roof and has walls of metal and glass. The town, together with an ever-green orchard and a micro-climate of its own, is encased in a single shell.”
