Named in honor of the Knight of the Order of Lachplesis , Senior Lieutenant of the Latvian Vilis Gelbe (1890-1919), who died heroically during the years of the struggle for the independence of Latvia [1] .
It was formed during the redevelopment and development of the quarter in the 1950s , but until 2017 it had no name.
