Configuration of urban planning spaces as a subject of protection. Innovative approaches to monuments protection works on the mass industrial development of Kharkiv of the 1960s – 1980s.

In all the large cities of Ukraine, significant spaces and, accordingly, a significant percentage of the housing stock are those of mass building of 1960–1980. The purpose of this research is to find an answer to a very specific question about the fundamental worldview and architectural attitude to the era of mass industrial development as to a huge cultural heritage, including architectural and urban planning one. Extension of the ideology of monument protection to the housing estates of the 1960s and 1980s contains a kind of 'categorical imperative' to develop non-standard approaches to this special morphology, which is completely unknown to the current monuments protection practice. this analysis should be integrated from the beginning with the development of promising programs of architectural and spatial reconstruction and social rehabilitation of these housing estates, as well as with the formation of special, essentially innovative approaches to heritage protection work on such non-traditional objects of documentation and preservation. A structural basis of protection zones projects i.e. protected territories, where the such a regime of town-planning and economic activity is established, which provides physical security of cultural heritage object and its historical environment, should be town-planning framework, step of highways, configuration of their trajectories. Components of the subject of cultural heritage protection may be the structure of the spatial environment, which includes the planning module of microdistricts and plots, scale, altitude and division of the building.
