History
From the 1850s, it was called the Deaf Alley . Since there were many thoroughfares with the same name in St. Petersburg, on March 5, 1871, the lane was renamed Agricultural, according to the Agricultural Academy (that was the name of the Forest Technical Academy , from which the lane began). In the 1930s, the lane was extended beyond Bolshaya Sampsonievsky Avenue , and in 1957 it was connected to Vazsky Lane near Beloostrovskaya Street. Since that time, the elongated lane got its modern name.
Here, on Zemledelcheskaya Street, in 1994, one of the bloodiest criminal squabbles in recent decades took place, with 10 people killed [1] .
