Ada Lebedeva Street is one of the oldest streets in the city. Until 1862 it was called Beregovaya Kachenskaya and was the only street that ran along the Kachi River. Krasnoyarsk was expanding in the direction of Afontovaya Hill, houses were built along the Kachi. So in 1862 a new street appeared, which also decided to be called Beregovaya Kachenskaya (now Republic Street), and the former Beregovaya Kachenskaya was renamed as Malo-Kachenskaya.
The street was mostly built up with wooden houses, which housed various baths, stores and small industries. There were especially many drinking establishments here. "On market days near the taverns on Malo-Kachenskaya it is impossible to pass or drive by, as the street is entirely forced at this time by carts of peasants, who feast here, not bothering neither in speeches, nor in anything else," the newspaper "Yenisei" wrote on October 4, 1895. Here were the residences of famous people in the town: Cossack coroner, revolutionary Rogov, Ada Lebedeva, and others.
During the years of Soviet power in Krasnoyarsk a special commission on naming and renaming the intracity facilities with the purpose to rename all the streets and squares in the city in a revolutionary spirit. Thus in 1921 Malo-Kachenskaya street was renamed in honor of Ada Lebedeva (1893-1918), a revolutionary figure, an active fighter for the establishment of Soviet power in Yenisei province.
Ada Lebedeva street originates in the same place where in the XIX century - at the beginning of Markovsky street (formerly Bolshe-Kachenskaya), and, passing a little over two kilometers, ends not near the railway workshops, but in the yards between Dekabristov and Robespiera streets.
It is not wide and as a rule very busy with cars.
At the present time here, along with preserved old wooden buildings, many of which are cultural heritage sites, there are modern houses of various architecture. At the beginning of the street number 18, 20, 22 there are three one-floor brick "candles" built in 2006-2007 with individual planning apartments.
At the intersection of Weinbaum and Ada Lebedeva Streets stands the residential complex "Northern Gates", consisting of four 14-, 16-, and 17-storey block sections, built on the basis of the 97th series with a monolithic corner insert. At the end of the street, instead of wooden barracks, two brick fourteen-story "candles" with spacious apartments and underground parking lots are built.
