Muscovites urge Nixon citizenship as city spruces up
Moscow residents joke Nixon should be named honorary citizen as the city races to refurbish and beautify key centers ahead of his visit. Old palaces, historic squares, and major boulevards are being cleaned, rebuilt, and repainted, with rapid demolition and landscaping altering views near Borovitsky Gate and Manezhnaya Street. Nixon's stay at Vnukovo 2 and a working visit are planned as Moscow accelerates urban upgrades to impress the U.S. delegation.
