Induced representations were introduced and studied by F.G. Frobenius in 1898 for finite groups
and developed by G.W. Mackey (1949) for locally compact groups. We generalize the Mackey construction for infinite-dimensional groups. To do this, we construct some G -quasi-invariant
measures on an appropriate completion of the initial space X=H\G. A.A. Kirillov's orbit method (1962) describes all irreducible unitary representations of the finite-dimensional nilpotent group G in terms of induced representations associated with orbits in coadjoint action of the group G in a
dual space g* of the Lie algebra g. As the illustration we start to develop an analog of the
orbit method for infinite-dimensional ``nilpotent'' group of upper triangular matrices.
