ABSTRACT.<\/strong> The article aims to systematize and refine knowledge about the events that influenced the emergence, formation, and development of the southern part of the city of Ekaterinburg \u2013 the Parkovy microdistrict. It analyzes the factors and phenomena that shaped this area as one of the major centers of the city\u2019s factory (manufacturing) center at different periods in its history, from the mid-18th to the late 20th century. The study, based on cartographic and written sources, examines the theoretical and practical aspects of organizing the industrial landscape using the example of one specific microdistrict. It analyzes the role and significance of the development of the real manufacturing sector in the city\u2019s modernization. The text presents nine key development processes in the area, seven of which are directly related to or significantly influenced by the industrial sector. The industrial enterprises located within the boundaries of the study area did not merely shape the territory in question; they, in essence, rebuilt it, constructing residential buildings, communal facilities and social institutions for their employees. The private initiatives of independent merchants and industrialists, who in the early stages of the area\u2019s development built their small factories and manufactories along the banks of the Iset River, were fairly quickly joined by the city administration, which was compelled to create and organize comfortable conditions for the expanding industrial complex. With the advent of Soviet rule, the development of the area came entirely under state control. Key factors here were the nationalization of existing factories, the creation of new, large state-owned enterprises, and the evacuation of existing production facilities to the Urals. The emergence of so-called \u201cpoints of attraction\u201d for the rapidly growing urban population (squares, markets, leisure parks) is also highlighted in the article as significant stages in the area\u2019s development. This is the first study of this concerning the microdistrict.<\/p>\n
