Vysotsky will appear on the map of Moscow – BBC

The name of Vladimir Vysotsky called one of the streets of Moscow. The decision as to what kind of street will be called in honor of Vladimir Vysotsky, the mayor’s office will be in early June.

The Moscow mayor’s office has taken a decision in principle to name one of the streets of Vladimir Vysotsky. The question of what kind of street will be named after the actor, will be decided on June 8 said “Gazeta.ru” Vice Mayor for Social Development, the chairman of the interdepartmental commission on the city name of territorial units, streets, subway stations, organizations, and other objects of Moscow Leonid printers .

«This day is planned to hold a meeting of the interdepartmental commission on this issue – said the official. – While we can not say that the renamed Marxist street or some other, we expect only that it would be one of the streets in Tagansky district. ”

As explained “Gazeta.ru” deputy municipal Tagansky district Ilya Sviridov, renaming process begins with the local authorities, which must be received by the appropriate treatment. The initiator of this appeal, in accordance with the Law of Moscow “On the name of the territorial units, streets and metro stations” can act, including the mayor of the city. So far, according to Sviridov, such a document to the deputies did not Tagansky district.

After the approval of the district deputies (they will choose to rename an object) the decision will be made to the commission by name – it meets once a quarter, and not just on June 8th, scheduled regular meeting.



Instead of Lenin

The idea to rename the street in memory of Vysotsky discussed for a long time, and there were a variety of options. For example, in 2013 the leader of the party “Yabloko” Sergei Mitrokhin suggested renaming Leninsky Prospekt, calling his name bard. However, while this initiative did not find support.

Street Vysotsky can boast more than ten Russian cities: this address is, for example, in Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk, Voronezh, Tuapse and Abakan. In memory of Vysotsky were named streets in Astana, the Kazakh and Uzbek Samarkand, as well as in several cities in Ukraine. In Kiev, for example, in 1987 he appeared Boulevard Vysotsky.

In Moscow, the image of the poet immortalized yet a monumental sculpture – so Vysotsky monuments are Strastnoy Boulevard and in the courtyard of the Taganka Theater.




Putin helped

It seems that now the street Vysotsky will appear in Moscow. In April this year, during a straight line with Putin about this I asked the chief editor of radio station “Echo of Moscow” Alexei Venediktov. He drew the attention of the President that in the 35 years that have passed since the death of the artist, no street in Moscow did not receive the name of the artist and poet.

«Moscow law allows the president made a presentation – recalled Venediktov. – And then the Moscow government may, for example, the Marxist street that leads to the Taganka Theater, named after Vladimir Vysotsky. ”

Putin agreed Venediktov the need of visiting the place name on the map of the capital.

«Of course, Vladimir Semenovich all his works, of course, deserved to perpetuate his name, his memory, including assigning his name one of the streets of Moscow “, – the president said, pledging to speak on this subject with the mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobyanin.

Do not Marxist

Chairman of the Moscow City Duma Commission for Culture and Mass Communications Yevgeny Gerasimov said that Marxist rename the street in the street Vysotsky’s not worth it.

«Close to the theater and the house has a lot of Vysotsky more appropriate streets, including Upper and Lower Radishchevskaya also discussed other options,” – suggested in a conversation with “papers. Ru »Gerasimov.

According to him, they are more connected with the name of the artist.

«Vysotsky was not pontyarschikom and Marxist street, in my opinion, too pretentious – said the deputy. – In addition, its name will be changed due to the high expenses, scandals and complaints from local residents than a change of name of small but pretty streets closer to the places where he lived and worked Vysotsky. ”

In April, commenting on the results of a straight line, Gerasimov also asked to name the name of the Bolshoi Vysotsky Karetnogo alley, which in the early 50s his family lived.

Against renaming Marxist and Ilya Sviridov. “It should be a street without homes. Renaming streets – a problem for people, and not very fair to put them in this situation. But there must be a logic decision. If Vysotsky – the Taganka Theater, and then you need to rename the upper Radishchevskaya, on which stands the theater “, – he told.
