Webcam Krasnoyarsk. Bryanskaya Street, Evenkiskaya Street
Bryanskaya Street is located in the Central District of Krasnoyarsk.
Before 1921 the street was called Podgornaya.
During the years of Soviet power in Krasnoyarsk a special commission for naming and renaming intracity facilities was established to rename all the streets and squares of the city in the revolutionary spirit.
In 1921 Podgornaya street to the east of Oborony street was renamed into Lassal street, and to the west of Oborony street into the street of Awakening.
Lassalle street (Ferdinand Lassalle (1825-1864) - philosopher, economist, famous German socialist, one of the founders of German social-democracy) was twice shorter than modern Bryanskaya street. It went out to the river Kacha near Yudinsky garden.
All its attractions were concentrated on the left side: at the beginning - the stud farm with a blacksmith shop, the Lakokraska factory, which suffered endless fires, and already under the Yudinsky garden - stadiums, where you could hear the endless screams of fans and players from the volleyball courts.
It happened that the Kacha River flooded the street, spilling all the way to the mountain. So it was on May 1, 1941: during the ice drift on the Yenisei, ice in the river bed formed a jam, and the water rose rapidly upwards, flooding the lower reaches of the Kacha.
On October, 23, 1957 Lassal street and Wakening street were united and renamed Bryanskaya street by the decision #827 of the executive committee of the Krasnoyarsk city council.
The street was named after the city of Bryansk. In turn, the city name came from the Old Russian word "Dryansk", derived from the word "dbr" (mountain slope, ravine, overgrown with dense forest). The exact date of the founding of Bryansk is unknown. Archaeological excavations indicate that the city was founded in the last quarter of X century.
