Main design aspects of modern river boat stations (the Rostov-on-Don case studies) (Rostov-on-Don)

The design relevance of the river boat station in the city of Rostov-on-Don is determined by the development of the left bank territories in the central part of the city, the need to solve transport problems (unloading of land routes), and recreational potential of the Don water area. Purpose: Identification of development principles of the architectural and planning model for the modern river transport facility in Rostov-on-Don. Research findings: Based on the world experience in design and construction of such facilities, the main design aspects are determined for river stations regarding their functional, planning, architectural, structural and regional factors. Value: The development of conceptual model of the modern river transport facility in Rostov-on-Don.
