Stories along the route
Окская (станция метро) · 0.0 km
You're standing at a station that appeared on the metro map quite recently — in 2020. But don't think of it as just a new dot on the map.
НИИОСП имени Н. М. Герсеванова · 0.7 km
Вы стоите перед зданием, где земля буквально разговаривает с инженерами. Это НИИОСП имени Герсеванова — место, где решают, как удержать на весу целые небоскрёбы.
Центральный научно-исследовательский институт строительных конструкций имени В. А. Кучеренко · 0.8 km
Before you stands the building where, for decades, the fate of concrete, steel, and buildings themselves across the whole country was decided.
Рязанский проспект (станция метро) · 2.1 km
You are standing by the exit of a station that bears the name of an avenue but is not located on it — it lies beneath it.
Рязанский район (Москва) · 2.8 km
You are standing at the edge of a district that Muscovites are used to calling Novye Kuzminki, even though on maps it appears as Ryazansky.
