About the park
At the junction of Michurinsky Avenue and Lobachevsky Street, traces of the Samorodinka riverbed remain: the river was put into a culvert here, and some of its water flows through four ponds. During the park’s renewal, the ponds were cleared of rubbish and aquatic vegetation, and submerged fountains were installed. Lawns cover 405,700 m² and flower beds 4,100 m²; the reconstruction also brought 839 trees and more than 25,000 shrubs. A looped network of paths connects the pond system with the rest of the park.

The park was laid out in 1978–1979 on the site of the former village of Nikolskoye for athletes due to be housed in the neighbouring Olympic Village during the 1980 Games. After the Olympics it became a local recreation area, but gradually fell into neglect. Comprehensive renewal, the first since the park was founded, took place from 2014 to 2016. The plan was revised following a survey of local residents, and the renewed park opened in 2016, giving the Olympic grounds an everyday role as a neighbourhood park.
Birds recorded nearby include the great tit, hooded crow, rock pigeon, Eurasian blue tit and fieldfare.
