Hrushevsky Street (Kyiv)

The street was established sometime in the 1810s as part of the greater Alexander Street which included such modern streets as Sahaidachny Street, Volodymyr Descent, Museum Lane. The street was established along an old Ruthenian path called "Ivanivsky Road". After the return of the Soviets to Kyiv in 1919, the whole of Alexander Street was renamed Revolution Street. After the transfer of the capital from Kharkiv to Kyiv in 1934, the street was split and today's Hrushevskyi portion was renamed as Kirov Street. It was one of the main sites of the Euromaidan protests in 2014. ==Connecting streets==
