It is part of the Northeast Administrative District. The area has a very developed infrastructure, convenient interchange and quiet neighborhoods.
History of the Yaroslavl region (Moscow, Russia)
The history of the area can be traced back to the mid-18th century. In accordance with archival documents, at this time there was Taininskaya volost and the village of Small Mytishchi. The name of the village comes from the word "wash", which means "duty collection". The fee was collected when moving through Yauza in Mytishchi. The village was located near the Ichki River. This settlement was small and numbered about 200 people. It was located directly at the intersection of the Ichki River and the road, which was the only way for merchants and pilgrims. The population of the village was engaged in fishing, hunting and trade. Since the main road was very busy, in the middle of the XVIII century a large trading hut was built, where pilgrims often liked to stop.
At the beginning of the 19th century, a water supply system was built as directed by Empress Catherine II. He supplied Muscovites with clean water. By this time, the population of the village had doubled. By the end of the 19th century, a railway to the city of Yaroslavl was laid and operated. This attracted a large number of summer residents, as the rich natural resources, the river, the lake and the forest became much more accessible, and thanks to the Elk Island, which this region now borders on, there was always wonderful fresh forest air.
After only half a century, rural residents began to deal with housing and trade thanks to convenient communication with Moscow. In addition, pilgrims who stopped in these places passed along the road. The local cuisine was especially attractive to the guests. Teahouses and taverns were favorite places to visit. Often in the village there were Moscow nobles and even the rulers of Russia.
In the 30–40s of the last century, the village of Malye Mytishchi grew significantly and numbered 1,500 people. At the same time, the construction of the Moscow Ring Road began, and after a couple of decades, mass development.
Royal possessions
Near Maly Mytishchi, the village of Raevo Myza was located - it was the estate of Catherine I. At that time it belonged to the Taininskaya volost and was called the village, since the settlements with the estates of the gentlemen had exactly that name. It was assumed that the empress would rest here during visits to the Sergius Monastery. After Elizabeth Petrovna came to power and the construction of the Travel Palace, it was given to the Choglokov, who subsequently received Prince Peter Fedorovich and Catherine II there. Also there was Count Razumovsky and other close associates of the royal family. Further, Major General Alenina owned the village (until the end of the sixties of the XVIII century), after which it passed into the possession of Khotyaitseva, and in the middle of the XIX century. to Myasoedova.
In fact, with. Raevo Manor had a palace structure and was more like a large economic estate. By the end of the 19th century, in connection with peasant reform, it was transformed into army depots. At that time, there were approximately 50 houses in the village. And at the beginning of the 20th century, when summer residents captured this area, the garrison of soldiers joined the people. The village of Red Pines was founded , which soon quickly grew and became part of the city.
During the reform of the nineties of the 20th century. this section became a full-fledged district of Moscow (1995) and got its name from the highway passing through this area.
