Creating a comfortable living environment in St. Petersburg, taking into account the preservation of the valuable characteristics of historical buildings and the consistent development of the Leningrad architectural school, is one of the most important tasks that is currently being addressed. The result of a systematic approach to the formation of the structure of the new development of Leningrad was the creation of a complex of urban ensembles, based on the principles of architecture of the early 20th century and the traditions of St. Petersburg architecture, which combined peripheral areas with the center. Therefore, it is relevant to study the architectural and spatial features of the formation of the urban environment of Leningrad in the pre-war decade, primarily in the context of the synthesis of the use of techniques in accordance with the needs of the workers of the world's first proletarian state and the preservation of the successive nature of the ensemble development of new urban planning solutions. The object of the study is the ensemble of Traktornaya Street. (architects A. Gegello, A. Nikolsky, G. Simonov, 1925-1927) The methodological basis of the study is: historical and urban planning analysis, including the study of historical documents (maps), design decisions, generalization and evaluation of the results obtained. As a result of the study, the authors come to the conclusion that the architectural and spatial methods of formation and means of organizing an ensemble in the peripheral areas of the working outskirts (on the example of Traktornaya Street) demonstrate the creative method of architects of the 1920-1930s, as a synthesis of the latest experience in designing residential quarters for workers in the capitalist countries of the West, St. Petersburg-Leningrad, the requirements of a man of a new proletarian state, the urban context and the preservation of the traditions of St. Petersburg architecture
