Karl Marx Street originates in the historic center of Krasnoyarsk, at Strelka, at the confluence of the Kachi River and the Yenisei, and runs through the central districts of the city. Territorially the street is located in the Central, Zheleznodorozhny and Oktyabrsky districts of Krasnoyarsk.
Since the second half of the XVIII century trade in Krasnoyarsk was carried out mainly on Starobazarnaya Square, near the Resurrection Cathedral (now Peace Square). Built at that time for trade a wooden guest house soon no longer meets the needs of the city, and in 1865 was built two-storey stone building of the guest house. This building is still one of the most interesting in the city, but has undergone some changes (Karla Marksa, 6).
Since that time Narrow Street was called Gostinskaya. Up until the mid-1920s there were a number of hotels here: "Modern", "Central", "Commercial Rooms" and others, and there were also a large number of private homes, the townspeople rented out their rooms. Where hotels, there were also drinking establishments: inns and restaurants on this street were also quite numerous. In general, it remained a place where the local elite lived and various offices operated.
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 the revolutionary spirit. Thus, in 1921 Gostinskaya street was renamed after Karl Marx, the German philosopher, sociologist, economist, and social activist.
Karl Marx street was radically reconstructed in the sixties of the last century. A lot of buildings were torn down. The street was extended, at the end of the 1960s it was built the first nine-storey houses.
The beginning of the street, where houses number 11-19 were located, was the oldest block of wooden houses in Krasnoyarsk.
In the area from 9th January street to the middle of the block near "Surikov museum" stop on the even side most of the houses of pre-revolutionary times are preserved till now. The oldest building on the block is a two-story stone mansion of the merchant I.I. Popov of the early 19th century.
Currently, Karl Marx street looks more like an avenue. It is a wide and extremely busy thoroughfare, where most bus and trolleybus routes pass.
To date, one of the oldest streets in Krasnoyarsk, about eighteen pre-revolutionary buildings have survived. Many of them are almost intact and may delight the citizens and guests of the city: first of all it is a beautiful one-storey stone mansion of Vera Gadalova, built in 1904 by the architect V. Sokolovsky in the "Russian baroque" style with French and Italian Renaissance motifs. This building is now one of the departments of the Surikov Art Museum. Surikov.
