Polonsky Street

In the pre-revolutionary years, the street was much longer: it also began from the city park and reached Astrakhan Street. At the crossroads with Astrakhan it continued Alexandrovskaya (Pravo-Lybedskaya) street. The street received its name from the nearby Nikolodvoryansky temple. In the pre-revolutionary years, Nikolodvoryanskaya was considered a very prestigious street: many famous people of Ryazan lived here: poet Y.P. Polonsky, founder of the Ryazan art museum A.A. Kiselev-Kamsky, merchant Lebedev, socially significant construction was led by patron S. Zhivago.

On August 8, 1919, according to the decree of the city council, the section of the street before the turn to Lenin Street was called Polonsky, and from the turn - Sverdlov Street. Thus, Nikolodvoryanskaya street was divided into 2 parts.
