This report clarifies the position of the university in the modern city. The relationship between the city and the university as cultural and anthropological constructs expressing the existential order of human existence is considered. The author defines the role of the university in the creation, structuring and transformation of the cultural space of the city. The article formulates the university mission, which is the formation of anthropological reality. The position of openness of the university to the city and the city to the university is argued. The prospect of overcoming the university’s strict local binding to a specific place in the perspective of understanding and visual structuring of urban space is investigated. The author outlines the perspective of mutual transparency and the merger of the city and the university in the context of solving the general problem of humanization of habitable space.

Keywords: city, university, inhabited space, visual environment, spatial localization, humanization of urban studies
