The Krasnogvardeiskaya metro station of the Zamoskvoretskaya line of the Moscow Metro has not so much history. She entered service in 1985. For more than a quarter of a century, it served as the terminal station on this direction of the Zamoskvoretskaya line - and only in 2012 did the metro step further, to the south.
Krasnogvardeyskaya metro station
This station can hardly be ranked among the masterpieces of the underground architecture of the center of Moscow, but it does not suffer from a complete lack of expressiveness. In its appearance, a certain golden mean is observed between the lurid luxury of Stalinist Empire architecture and the complete absence of architectural excesses of the subsequent Khrushchev decade. Everything is balanced here. Structurally, the metro station "Krasnogvardeyskaya" is a spacious single-vaulted structure of shallow foundation. The main material is monolithic reinforced concrete. The vault of the station is designed in the form of long coffered rows covering the entire space. The lower part of the room is lined with red and gray varieties of marble. The end parts are decorated with stained-glass windows on the themeOctober revolution. A characteristic feature of the metro station "Krasnogvardeiskaya" is the location of stands with its name in the center of the hall, and not on the side walls, as is most often the case. There are four exits to the city on different streets of the intersection and two underground vestibules on opposite sides. There are no above ground structures. But the station organically fit into the life of the southern outskirts of a large metropolis - and it would be very difficult to imagine the transport network without it today. Even for real estate structures, its presence greatly increases the capitalization of real estate objects located in close proximity to the metro.
"Krasnogvardeyskaya" in urban infrastructure
The station is located at a very lively Moscow crossroads. Through its four exits to the surface, you can go to Musa Jalil and Yasenevaya streets and to Orekhovy Boulevard. For many Muscovites and guests of the capital, this is just a transfer point from one mode of transport to another.
This place has a lot of land transport communications and many commercial facilities - hotels, restaurants, large shopping centers and vehicle service stations. Modern residential complexes have also been built here. The operation of the Krasnogvardeiskaya metro station changed fundamentally in December 2011, when the station acquired the status of a transfer hub in the south of Moscow. In the center of the hall, a transition to the station "Zyablikovo" Lublinsko-Dmitrovskaya line.
This significantly expanded the transport significance of the station and provided the residents of the area with the opportunity to get to the central part of the city in the shortest possible way. The negative aspects include the constructive solution of the transition node. It is designed in such a way that when passing through it, one has to go beyond the paid zone and overcome the turnstile again. This cannot but cause complaints from passengers.
