Gagarinskaya Street (Sestroretsk)

Sestroretsk, Gagarinskaya Street

Gagarin Street in Sestroretsk got its name in the late 19th century from the Gagarka area, not after the cosmonaut, and acquired the shape of the letter G after merging with the former Gagarskaya Grivka in the 1930s. The Sestroretsky Overpass is located above the street; its official name was assigned on March 27, 2017, after the nearby railway station. The building of the former Almshouse, which later became a tuberculosis hospital, was completely demolished after 30 years of disuse, and the "House by Razliv" residential complex was built in its place.
