The street is built up with buildings of different styles and eras: there are modern shopping centers and houses built in the 2000s and 2010s, pre-revolutionary merchant houses, the private sector, and for the most part Khrushchev and Stalinist buildings, panel houses of the Brezhnev and Gorbachev eras.

Until 1920, it was called Tatar-Bazarnaya or Tatar Bazaar Street, then it was renamed Combat Street. This name remained until 1968, when it was renamed in honor of the fiftieth anniversary of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League (Komsomol). The previous name was restored in 1989.
