Brateevsky Cascade Park

Brateevsky Cascade Park, Terraced park in Moscow, Russia

Brateevsky Cascade Park is a tiered green space in Moscow with multiple water features, ponds, and planted areas along the Moscow River bank. The different elevation levels are connected by pathways that create a varied landscape.

In 1980 sand was excavated here for the construction of Maryino's residential districts, leaving a bay of about 8 hectares. In 2001, when the Lefortovo Tunnel was being built, more than 600,000 m³ of displaced soil was used to improve the Brateevskaya embankment. The designers A. Khomyakov, E. Semenova-Prozorovskaya and V. Timofeev shaped three hills and planted larches, birches, apple trees and shrubs. The park opened in autumn 2006.

Since 2006 the park has hosted the annual civil-patriotic game Zarnitsa. In July 2016 it held the second Rostec International Fireworks Festival, themed on cinema, and in August 2017 the third edition, marking Moscow's 870th anniversary, with teams from eight countries.

The park descends in terraces from Borisovskiye Prudy street to the right bank of the Moskva River, so walking between levels means following sloping paths. A small pond lies in the eastern, Brateevo part. The 2016 improvement works added several children's and sports grounds. The bus stop serving the park was renamed Kaskadny Park in February 2022.

The three hills were built from more than 600,000 m³ of soil freed up during construction of the Lefortovo Tunnel, and the designers were A. Khomyakov, E. Semenova-Prozorovskaya and V. Timofeev. Larches, birches and apple trees were planted on the filled ground, and the embankment was faced with granite.
