Prospect in the name of Comrade Lenin, it is also the former Nicholaevskaya Street in the name of tzar Nikolai I,
aka Gospodskaya (Manor) street. In the very old times it was divided into two sides - 'velvet' for the lords and the bourgeoisie and 'calico' - for working people, soldiers, sailors, and other proletariat. The picture was taken with a 'velvet' side, although outside my mind I would have cost to go to the other side as soon as possible.
