History of Marina Grove
In ancient times, on the site of the Maryina Grove district of Moscow, dense forests grew, in which the Slavic-Vyatichi tribes lived. Since the founding of the city, these places have changed many owners. During the reign of Anna Ioannovna, Prince Cherkassky owned the forests. After it, the forest land and the village of Maryino become the property of Count Sheremetyev. The earliest records of Maryino date back to the 16th century.
There are two versions of the appearance of the name Maryina grove. The first says that the entire wooded area surrounding the village of Maryino was named after the chieftain Mary, who commanded the local robbers. According to the second, the name of the area was given in honor of the beloved wife of the Moscow boyar F. Goltay, the beautiful Mary. Held in 1742, the Kamer-Kollezhsky shaft, which designated the border of Moscow, demanded deforestation. Preserved groves have become a favorite place for festivities of citizens.
In the village of Maryino lived mainly courtyard Count Sheremetyev. After 1861, when peasants were freed from serfdom, land in Maryina Grove began to be leased. Low-rise buildings for poor people were built here. The area gradually began to gain notoriety. After the bridge was built across the railway, industrial construction began in these places.
At the beginning of the XX century there was an industrial area of Moscow, and only in the 50s began the construction of residential buildings. There are many five-story buildings, "Khrushchev", which are going to be demolished. There are modern buildings.
