Samara region, the village of Vodino. This place is called the "Dead City". The most popular version is that it is an unfinished residential town of a non-built compressor plant. An old article was found in one of the Samara newspapers, what really should have been built there:
“It was supposed to build a settlement for workers of a house-building plant on the site. Kozelkah and Vodino village. The third option was chosen, since large areas were required for construction, since the construction of DSK-2 included, in addition to the plant of efficiency (large-panel house-building), a plant for cellular concrete and brick the plant. At the same time, the construction of the working village was also discussed. According to Mikhail Zolotarev, it was originally planned to build 485 thousand square meters (today the area of the “Dead City” is 250 thousand square meters). By the beginning of the 90s it became clear that it was impossible to continue the construction of DSK-2 due to lack of funding, and the construction was frozen. The construction of the cellular concrete plant and its design continued. After a while, the construction part of the cellular concrete plant was basically completed: mustache and various warehouses. In 1991, in connection with the collapse of the USSR, funding was discontinued, and the construction of the plant, and with it the working village, was suspended. According to Mikhail Zolotarev, at that time communications were already carried out in the village, radiators were installed, some houses even had wallpapers on their walls, the issue of supplying heat to the village was decided.
