The district we live

The history of the district FPQ is not unusual and now it is nearly impossible to believe that this wonderful part of our town did not exist some years ago.

But in the 1930s-1950s there was only a small village surrounded by the birch grove and a pond on this place.

In 1964 the State farm "Plodopitomnic" was organized. The state farm was supposed to grow plants, fruit frees, flowers for decorating parks, streets and yards of our town.

'Plodopitomnic" helped people to develop gardening.

In the 1980s local authorities decided to build a new district between Kemerovo and "Plodopitomnic"."Kemerovopromstroy" began its construction. It was difficult to build here because the soil was swampy.

The first building was the Institute for the Perfection of Professional Qualification. It had the faculty of improving qualification of engineers and technical workers. It appeared in 1980. Different modern courses of management, economy, psychology, methods of teaching were taught by Professors and Doctors of Science.

That is why this district was called FPQ-the Faculty of the Perfection of Professional Qualification. Later, the Kemerovo Regional institute of improving qualification of teachers (and professional Education) was build. Nowadays our district is an educational centre. There are three colleges, secondary schools № 95, 97, 99 and an elementary school № 98. There are some nursery schools, musical and art schools and a Creation Activity House for children.

At the end of the 80s a lot of buildings began to appear. They were comfortable, multistoried, with all modern conveniences. At first, it was a big problem for the citizens of FPQ to reach their working places or to find a food shop. There were neither trolley-buses nor buses. The nearest tram line was in Sibiryakov-Gvardeitsevstreet. The only bus route № 101 was always overcrowded.

Time flies and now, our district is a nice, modern place convenient for everyday life with widely-spread infrastructure. Nowadays there are two hospitals for children and adults, chemist's shops, two modern stadiums, fitness centres, pleasant-looking sports grounds for rest.

In 2010 the Church of St.Varvara was founded.

Nowadays there is no need to go far to the other districts to buy all necessary things.

One more wonder of this district is a modern shopping mall "Greenwich". It is located just in the centre of FPQ and attracts everybody's attention. Its size is immense and the shape of the building is unusual. "Greenwich" gains the popularity among our citizens.

On the ground floor there is a huge shop of household appliances, called "Tekhnosila". We can find a great variety of helpful things there. One can buy all kinds of fresh healthy food in the supermarket "Kora". The cinema "Vostok" is also located in "Greenwich". Near the "Vostok" there is a cafe where you can enjoy different kinds of ice-cream or pop corn or just meet friends before or after a film. If you visit our shopping mall you will get an unforgettable impression.

The citizens of our district spend their free time in different places.

There are some cafes in Molodjozhnij Avenue. One of them is "Baloven". Stylish decoration in a spirit of English pub and a masterly cuisine provide you a real rest in the company of your close friends and will make your business lunches in "Baloven" successful.

"Сheshky" is a place for rest for those who prefer great variety. You can get Fast Food, tasty Italian cuisine, and other delicious meal.

The Kemerovites like our district a lot.
