History
Formed at the confluence of Elanskaya and Spasskaya streets, known since 1853. Presumably, in the 17th century, the Spassky highway passed from the Tomsk shopping area to the old village of Spassky . Name Elanskaya associated with the name of the place - Elan - flat place, clearing in the forest.
In 1886, on the site of the marsh area of Novo-Cathedral Square , the Tomsk City Garden was founded.
On November 8, 1910, Siberian Higher Courses for Women were opened in a wooden residential house No. 9 on Yelanskaya Street [1] . The courses occupied one floor of the house, seven rooms with a total size and layout that corresponded to the needs of a family of six. The number of students enrolled in courses reached several dozen students. [2]
New Story
On May 14, 1920, the northern part of the present street received its current name (that is, the entire Elanskaya Street was renamed Sovetskaya Street). In 1929, former Spasskaya Street was included in Sovetskaya Street, thus, present Sovetskaya Street is located in the former borders of Yelanskaya and Spasskaya streets.
In May 1949, the first tram passed from the Tomsk-I station to Batenkov Square .
In building the street remains a neighborhood of stone and wooden houses.
