Abstract <p>The article examines, from the perspective of Bruno Latour’s actor–network theory, transformation of the use of the territory of Moskvoretsky Historical and Natural Park (Moscow, Russia), on the bank of the Moskva River in the Strogino district in the northwest of the city. The main method of collecting empirical data was the author’s regular participant observation of the river and its banks. Observations were conducted from 2007 to the present. Detailed observations began in 2014. Since 2007, the park and riverbank have undergone significant transformations, including expansion of the park’s functions. As a result of expansion of the functions of the park and water area, different population groups have developed different modes of using this territory, which in some cases can lead to conflicts in place functions. The riverbank becomes not so much a natural object intended for recreation, but a space for consumption, part of the urban environment. The downside of these changes is the potential for real or potential conflicts between park users. The article is, on the one hand, methodological in nature, since the main emphasis is on the key concepts of actor–network theory and the possibility of their use in the analysis of changes in the park, which is not often found in the works of social geographers. On the other hand, the results of the park’s transformation are presented, and the pros and cons of the changes taking place are considered. The article presents the stages of capitalization of the space of the studied territory using the approaches of Henri Lefebvre and David Harvey. The seasonal rhythms of the park’s life and the agency of its territory are shown, and the social interactions of park visitors are considered from the viewpoint of the main concepts of actor–network theory: sociotechnical network, translation centers, affordances of the river and its banks.</p>
