The analysis of cartographic sources of the 18th century specifies and supplements ideas of scientists of the spatial structure of quarters in general and separate details of planning in particular. In the Tatar settlement of Kazan of the middle of the 18th century, there were serious processes related to eviction of a part on the new territory and filling of the freed territories with new architectural and planning sites. As a result, the Tatar Quarter structure, which hardly changed in the 16th–17th centuries, underwent significant changes. Examination of these changes as concerning all settlement, and some of its interesting details is given in this article. The historical analysis of changes is comp¬lemented with modern geoinformation methods. Data on the specifics of the Old Tatar, New Tatar and New Epiphany quarters, old and new cemeteries of the Tatar settlement have been outlined, information on brick production in the territory of the Tatar Quarter during the specified period is given.


Keywords: ans of the Old-Tatar, New-Tatar and New Epiphany settlements of Kazan, old and new Tatar cemetery, brick production.
