The commission received 117 suggestions and sketches.

One of the first noticeable was the placement of gates at the staircases leading to the tribune. After the removal of the guard, this was necessary to prevent unauthorised usage of the tribune. Beginning in 2012, the mausoleum underwent foundation reconstruction, necessitated by the construction of a building attached to the mausoleum in 1983. The new building housed an <a href="/wiki/Escalator" title="Escalator">escalator</a> used by members of the <a href="/wiki/Politburo_of_the_Communist_Party_of_the_Soviet_Union" title="Politburo of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union">Politburo</a> to ascend the tribune.<sup id="cite_ref-14" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-14"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>14<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1995–96, when Yeltsin used the tribune, he used the staircase and not the escalator. The escalator was removed after the tribune became disused. Following renovations, the mausoleum was reopened on 30 April 2013, in time for the 1 May celebration of "The Day of Spring and Labour". </p> </section><div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 section-heading" onclick="mfTempOpenSection(5)"><span class="indicator mf-icon mf-icon-expand mf-icon--small"></span><h2 id="Proposals_for_burial">Proposals for burial</h2><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="/w/index.php?title=Lenin%27s_Mausoleum&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Proposals for burial" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </div><section class="mf-section-5 collapsible-block" id="mf-section-5"> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg/170px-RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="255" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="683" data-file-height="1024"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 170px;height: 255px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg/170px-RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg" data-width="170" data-height="255" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg/255px-RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg/340px-RIAN_archive_665548_Young_Pioneer_induction_ceremony_held_at_Moscow%27s_Red_Square.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </span></a><figcaption>Participants in the ceremony of induction into pioneers at the Lenin Mausoleum on Red Square.
