contents Plücker coordinates define the $T^n$-equivariant embedding $p : G_{n,2}\to \C P^{N}$ of a complex Grassmann manifold $G_{n,2}$ into the complex projective space $\C P^{N}$, $N=\binom{n}{2}-1$ for the canonical $T^n$-action on $G_{n,2}$ and the $T^n$-action on $\C P^{N}$ given by the second exterior power representation $T^n\to T^{N}$ and the standard $T^{N}$-action. Let $μ: G_{n,2}\to Δ_{n,2}\subset \R ^{n}$ and $\tildeμ: \C P^{N}\to Δ_{n,2}\subset \R^n$ be the moment maps for the $T^n$-actions on $G_{n,2}$ and $\C P^{N}$ respectively, such that $\tildeμ \circ p=μ$. The preimages $μ^{-1}({\bf x})$ and $\tildeμ ^{-1}({\bf y})$ are smooth submanifolds in $G_{n, 2}$ and $\C P^{N}$, for any regular values ${\bf x}, {\bf y} \in Δ_{n,2}$ for these maps, respectively. The orbit spaces $μ^{-1}({\bf x})/T^n$ and $\tildeμ^{-1}({\bf y})/T^n$ are symplectic manifolds, which are known as symplectic reduction. The regular values for $μ$ and $\tildeμ$ coincide for $n=4$ and we prove that $μ^{-1}({\bf x})$ and $\tildeμ^{-1}({\bf x}) $ do not depend on a regular value ${\bf x}\in Δ_{4,2}$. We provide their explicit topological description, that is we prove $μ^{-1}({\bf x})\cong S^3\times T^2$ and $\tildeμ ^{-1}({\bf x})\cong S^5\times T^2$. The Deligne - Mumford compactification $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0, n}$ is proved to be a symplectic reduction of $G_{n,2}$ by the canonical $T^n$-action if and only if $n=4,5$, while the Losev - Manin compactification is a such symplectic reduction if and only if $n=5$.
