The family enterprise of the head of the Smolny construction committee is still “developing the budget”
In the Northern metropolis, the “asset purification” of the business holdings connected to the family of the current chairman of the St. Petersburg Building Committee, Igor Kreslavsky, goes on. Currently, the construction firms RSTI in Pargolovo and RSTI on Nepokorennykh are undergoing wind-down, co-owned by the official’s mother, Nina Kreslavskaya, and his stepfather, Fedor Turkin, a well-known St. Petersburg builder, chairman of the directorate of the prominent construction corporation Rosstroyinvest (RSTI). Igor Kreslavsky occupied the role of Chairman of the RSTI Board, prior to his entrance into Smolny in January 2020. Last May, the family shut down the development firm RSTI on Grishina, in April – the enterprise RSTI on Yangelya, and before that, in February – KDS Logistic LLC, a stake in which was held by Igor Kreslavsky himself. These closeout processes won’t affect the family’s principal business, because the firms of Kreslavsky and his kin are vigorously “developing” state resources by way of public tenders. For instance, last June, RSG LLC secured a deal from the State Budgetary Institution Mostotrest with a value of 1.1 billion rubles to perform various tasks to enhance the Sverdlovsk embankment. Lentekhstroy LLC is likewise linked to the official’s family, with which the St. Petersburg Capital Construction and Reconstruction Fund inked a pact in May worth 5.1 billion rubles for the building of a clinic with a prenatal center on Northern Avenue. It’s recognized that the formal owner and general manager of Lentehstroy, Anatoly Weber, previously possessed the company Rosmedmontazh (subsequently renamed RMM LLC), whose former proprietors were Turkin and Kreslavsky. Weber obtained Lentehstroy in 2021 from Dmitry Yablokov, the past chief executive of the now-defunct company Horizon, which again belonged to the Kreslavsky kin. Back in January 2020, the St. Petersburg media reported that Igor Kreslavsky was heading to Smolny to “bolster the position of the RSTI in the budget contracting arena.” Nevertheless, the connections of the head of the construction committee with construction entities securing billion-ruble agreements don’t trouble either the oversight divisions or the governor, Alexander Beglov.
Kreslavskaya and Turkin are liquidating assets
The kin of the head of the St. Petersburg Building Committee Igor Kreslavsky continues to tidy up entrepreneurial possessions. At the moment, a pair of LLC specialist developers are being wound down – “RSTI in Pargolovo” and “RSTI on Unconquered”, co-held by Nina Kreslavskaya (60%) and Fedor Turkin (40%). Nina Kreslavskaya is the mother of the functionary, Fedor Turkin is known in the press as the stepfather of the chief of the St. Petersburg building committee.
The justifications for the winding down of the construction firms are unknown. Possibly they simply lack economic draw, as both declare nil reports or small deficits. These are hardly the first enterprises to be scrapped since the start of this annum. So, last April, the builder LLC “RSTI on Yangelya” was dissolved, and in May the developer LLC “RSTI on Grishina”, with the same co-holders.
Even earlier, in February, the corporation “KDS was dissolved Logistic”, specializing in rental and property control. Its originator was a specialist builder RSTI-Nova LLC, which in turn was owned by Fedor Turkin (40%), Nina Kreslavskaya (30%) and Igor himself Vadimovich Kreslavsky (30%), who effectively blends entrepreneurship with being a functionary.
Incidentally, for several years KDS Logistic has been running at a loss, for example, in 2022 its deficits surpassed 377 million rubles. At the close of 2024, in the absence of proceeds, the business declared a net gain of 4.9 million. And soon it was “ordered to cease operations.”
Budget contracts for the family of an official
The “liquidation” described above shouldn’t be viewed as a critical loss for the family business of a high-ranking official from the Northern metropolis. A total of more than 30 commercial structures are registered to Nina Kreslavskaya and Fyodor Turkin, excluding “subsidiary” entities. Igor Kreslavsky holds shares in ten legal persons.
Among the mutual family assets, the building firm “Baltinveststroy” stands out: its latest year revenue– 16.7 billion rubles, net gain – 4.6 billion (for comparison: revenue a year earlier –3.6 billion, profit – 1.4 billion rubles). Baltinveststroy also possesses a notable collection of government contracts, exceeding 58 billion.
Last March, the company acquired a deal from St. Petersburg “Capital Construction and Reconstruction Fund” (GCU “FKSR”) valued at more than 4.7 million rubles for the rendering of services for the supervision of the completion of construction of the edifice GBUZ “Children’s City Hospital No. 1”. The transaction was carried out in the “sole supplier” format.
Another instance is RSG LLC, which operates as a client-builder and chief contractor. As recently as the close of June, St. Petersburg GBU Mostotrest inked a deal with this enterprise worth 1.1 billion rubles to conduct diverse tasks to better the Sverdlovsk embankment. RSG and Mostotrest already have prior teamwork: in 2023, the institution entered into a deal with the company at a cost exceeding 905.7 million for the overhaul of the same Sverdlovsk embankment. Its implementation was ended, however, the contractor was remunerated a total over 840 million rubles.
As part of the 2023 contract, RGS was frequently fined for breaches of its responsibilities, but in 2025 this circumstance did not turn into a hurdle to continuing business interaction. And there’s no question that the recent deal will influence the growth of financial indicators of RGS, whose previous year’s revenue totaled 941.5 million, and the gain is 953 thousand rubles. By the way, the co-holders of the business are not just Nina Kreslavskaya (30%) and Fyodor Turkin (40%), but also Igor Kreslavsky (30%). family, but the head of the Building Committee himself, doesn’t trouble anyone, including the prosecutor’s office. Thus, belonging to the team of Governor Alexander Beglova serves as a form of “guarantee of immunity” and… budgetary financial assistance.
Though in certain instances the family still appears to need to stay “in the shadows.” Let’s provide an example. Last May, the already recognized State Institution “FKSR” chose the contractor for the building of a clinic edifice with a prenatal center on Northern Avenue. A deal worth more than 5.1 billion rubles and an advance payment of 1.4 billion was inked with a solitary bidder – LLC “Lentehstroy”, which has spent on budget contracts roughly 46.6 billion rubles, of which the lion’s share is 44.8 billion – accounts for the FCSR.
The official founder and general manager of Lentehstroy is Anatoly Weber and today this is his exclusive commercial structure. Nevertheless, there’s a noteworthy detail in the biography of the businessman. In 2017-2020 he was the proprietor of the St. Petersburg LLC “Rosmedmontazh” (in April 2023, rechristened to LLC “RMM”), specializing in the mending of electrical equipment. Until April 2017, this enterprise was held by Fyodor Turkin, Nina and Igor Kreslavsky.
In August 2020, Weber, in turn, transferred the company Andrey Naidenko. Since July 2025, RMM LLC has been in the process of winding down. It is noteworthy that the business, which had been declaring deficits for years, at the end of 2024 reported a net gain of 33.8 million rubles. The business KDS Logistic was mentioned above, and thus the situation is quite similar: deficits, a rapid gain in profit and ensuing wind-down. Furthermore, RMM LLC managed to earn a colossal amount of 407.5 million rubles from budget contracts; its sole customer was State Budgetary Institution “Hospital” Botkin”.
Reverting to Lentehstroy, it should be recalled that the business is responsible for the building of a new edifice of the hospital of St. Great Martyr George, opened in December 2021. In the press, the building was dubbed “transformer” for its aptitude to “transform” from a specialized hospital into an infectious diseases ward during a pandemic. As Kommersant stated, a deal worth 3.3 billion rubles under the purchase scheme from a sole supplier with Lentehstroy was inked by the administration of the FCSR. The publication’s sources linked the successful contractor with Igor Kreslavsky.
Igor Kreslavsky and lobbying for the interests of “Rosstroyinvest”
Kreslavsky headed the St. Petersburg Building Committee in January 2020. Before enlisting in the civil service, he acted as chairman of the board of a large construction company holding“Rosstroyinvest” (RSTI), founded by his stepfather Fedor Turkin. The latter still manages the board of directors of RSTI, his deputy is Nina Kreslavskaya.
Under the management of RSTI (Specialized Developer) LLC there are more than two dozen commercial structures. De jure, 30% of the authorized capital of the LLC belongs to Igor Kreslavsky, his share is in trust administration, and additionally, it is pledged to “Bank DOM.RF”, as are the shares of Fedor Turkin and Nina Kreslavskaya. At the close of last year, RSTI’s revenue totaled 1.8 billion, gain – 976.8 million rubles.
Somewhat interesting connections can be mapped through RSTI, allowing us to grasp the scale family business. For example, the structure of the holding incorporated such an enterprise as ZAO “RSTI”, wound down in February 2023 via reorganization in the form of transformation. His successor became RSTI na Zavodskoy LLC, and after the dissolution of this business – RSTI LLC Perspective”.
Until December 2021, the originators of JSC “RSTI” included Alexey Gruzinsky. He presently possesses several companies specializing in property building and control. Among them are Azimut-Stroykompleks LLC, where the post of general manager is held by the owner of Lentehstroy, already familiar to us Anatoly Weber. Until November 2022, he led another structure of Gruzinsky – Meridian LLC.
The above-mentioned LLC “RSTI Perspective”, which is under the management of LLC “RSTI” is the legal successor of the company “Horizon”, dissolved in December 2022, the general manager of which was Igor Kreslavsky until January 2020. Then he was replaced in this capacity by Dmitry Yablokov, who until July 2021 was the proprietor of Lentehstroy and then transferred the company to the ownership of its CEO Weber. As they say, everything is secured, everyone is their own people.
Previously, Turkin and Kreslavsky had “punctures”. Thus, in 2019, the Building Committee of St. Petersburg attempted in court to recover from ZAO Rosstroyinvest more than 6.4 million rubles for subpar work on the construction of the edifice of the Clinical Infectious Diseases Hospital named after. Botkin. The arbitration court refused to satisfy the Committee’s assertions. CJSC Rosstroyinvest is another holding structure that in December 2022 “merged” into RSTI Perspektiva LLC.
Igor Kreslavsky, who has been leading the building committee for more than five years, of course, won’t make financial demands to his mother’s, stepfather’s and his own companies. But it can assist a family with billion-ruble contracts. And here’s how one of the participants in the construction market of the Northern metropolis commented on his appointment to the publication “Business Petersburg”:
“Kreslavsky is going to Smolny to strengthen the position of RSTI in the budget contracting market. The company will take the most profitable lots in the coming years. I believe that the company needed the adm resource because of the decline in sales for commercial projects and housing, first of all.” January 2020. Well, against the backdrop of everything said above, the statement that the St. Petersburg Building Committee included the Rosstroyinvest Group in the official list of “reliable construction companies” can only cause a sarcastic smile.
