Metro "Kantemirovskoe". Milestones in History
The project of this station was developed by architects R. Pogrebnoy and V. Phillipov, with the participation of I. Plyukhin. According to their idea, this single-vault station is only 8 meters deep, built in an open way and has no columns at all, and the design of the station's arch was originally made of integral concrete.
Few people know that on the Kashirskaya-Orekhovo section, the station opened twice. This happened for the first time in 1984 - December 30, but that night there was flooding due to a violation of the waterproofing. The station was closed. And only a month later, it was possible to eliminate all the shortcomings and open the station for the second time in February 1985.
By the way, initially according to the project, the station was to be called “Lenino”, but it became known as “Kantemirovskaya” because of the nearby Kantemirovskaya street.
