History
The area around the park began to be built up in the early 1970s. At first, the area between Podvoisky and Antonov-Ovseenko streets also began to be built up - there appeared two typical 12-story dormitory buildings and four 9-story panel houses (another was later built across across the existing ones), but then they decided to leave this territory as a recreation area. Thus, the park extended from the ends of the houses to Iskrovsky Prospect, and from Iskovsky Prospect to Far Eastern Prospect , actually merging with a large wasteland outside Belysheva Street .
By May 27, 2004, on the initiative of the administration of the Nevsky District and the Union of Construction Organizations, the green zone was landscaped and named the Builders Park .
After 2004, the park territory decreased several times. Two parcels of land were seized from the even side of Iskra Prospect, on which, by 2008, two multi-apartment residential buildings had been erected. On the odd side, the Church of the Holy Apostle Peter the Great was first erected (2005-2008), then the Gazprom Sports Complex; In the territory adjacent to the Far Eastern Avenue, gas stations, a VAZ car dealership and a car workshop were built. It is planned to withdraw another part of the park for the construction of a school for the disabled [1] .
