The discussion between the followers of Howard’s garden city concept and supporters of the Fordian social city concept is considered on the basis of archival documents. The discussion took place in the 1920s and ended with the administrative suppression of one of the parties, which largely determined the ways of further development of the socialist urban planning. The article expresses the thesis that the opposing concepts were not antagonists at all. The development of architecture over the next hundred years has shown that both concepts are successfully developing, complementing each other.
