History
The street appeared in the 1920s during the construction of the village of Sokol . The street got its name on April 4, 1928 in honor of the Russian artist Alexei Gavrilovich Venetsianov ( 1780 - 1847 ) [6] . Initially, the street connected Surikov Street and Levitan Street . The southern part of the street was much wider than the north, there was a square with a well. In 1937, the house of the artist A. M. Gerasimov was built on the site of the square on Venetsianov Street, as a result of which the street became a dead end. During the Great Patriotic War , one of the lines of the defensive fortifications of Moscow passed along the street [7] .
According to the Vesti.ru portal, Venetsianova Street lost the title of the shortest street in Russia in the fall of 2011. Now the shortest street in the country is Sibstroitputi Street in Novosibirsk , which is 8 meters shorter than Venetsianova Street [8] .
