New Tashkent

The project plans on building a new district with the name of "New Tashkent" in Tashkent by the year 2045, which would be about 20,000 hectares large. In an interview with the head of the project Saidazim Sharipov, after being asked the question on how far the borders of New Tashkent would go, he responded that "the territory of New Tashkent adjoins the eastern part of the existing Tashkent. Tashkent's eastern border is defined by highway 4R12. This is where the western part of New Tashkent begins. The northern border will end at the lower limits of the city of Yangibazar. The eastern border runs along the Karasu River. In the south, the city will end roughly where Tashkent ends". When asked about the layout of New Tashkent, he responded that "Tashkent is a very unique city", therefore saying it will likely be varied rather than with a specific layout. With the question of how large an average quarter of the city will be, he responded that "different cities with different block sizes have their advantages and disadvantages. The denser the streets, the more paved areas there are. For example, in Portland, USA, blocks are 60 meters in size". When asked what would the main architectural styles in New Tashkent, he responded that "depending on the usage and function of the buildings, architectural styles will be varied".^[1] Later, Russian sources claimed that a quarter in New Tashkent will be inspired by the Russian city of Saint-Petersburg and that construction of it will begin in mid 2026.^[2][3] It was also claimed by the management of the project that about 30% of the territory of New Tashkent will consist of parks and squares^[4].

As of February 10th 2026, there is no information how much estate will be constructed in New Tashkent. The Uzbekistani government claimed that on average, for 95 hectares, there will be about 15 thousands of flats. As of late 2025, about 1.8 million square meters of New Tashkent is completed. New Tashkent is positioned like a "green city" with the main goal being to preserve nature and ecology of the city. A 420 hectares large park named the Central Park will be built in New Tashkent, where about 200 thousands of trees will grow.^[5]
