The territory of the district starts from the Belorussky railway station and reaches the Moscow Ring Road , and also includes a separately located Molzhaninovsky district .

The district was created on the territories of Moscow and the Moscow region , which in the XX century practically did not fall into the Moscow city line, with the exception of the places: Yamskoye Pole , Petrovsky Park and Butyrskaya Sloboda . At the end of the XX century, on the future territory of the CAO there were about three dozen owner villages , villages and hamlets , as well as several small factory and factory towns , to which were added station and summer cottages. The border, at the beginning of the 20th century, between Moscow and the zemstvo in the Moscow district , passed along Skakovaya street , then along Pegovsky lane (now Seryogina street), Upper and Lower Maslovka . In the territory adjacent to Butyrka , the Razdelnaya street served as the border with the zemstvo (now it is only partially preserved), as well as Tsarsky proezd - the modern 1st Khutorskaya street , followed by the volosts of the county: Vsekhsvyatskaya , Rostokinskaya , Troitskaya and Cherkizovskaya .
