So that the name does not remain just an address. How Cities Bring Their History Back to the Streets Often, city dwellers don't know the stories of those whose streets are named after them. To remedy this, the portal Unforgettable Names.rf was created in St. Petersburg. Information about the personalities immortalized in the headlines has been compiled into handy cards with key facts. And games with thematic tasks will help you test your knowledge. The "Unforgettable Names" portal is not an isolated case, but part of an emerging urban practice. Other cities tackle the same problem in two main ways, either through posters or signs or through interactive maps, but with a different emphasis. For municipalities, the key question is how to bring information to residents in the best way. The portal is convenient for deep immersion, but a poster at a bus stop or a map at a summer camp works where one doesn't look very much. Moscow displays posters on 80 streets instead of a single portal. The "Nearby" project places informational materials at public transportation stations, newsstands and on traditional billboards in 80 streets named after the participants of the Great Patriotic War. For example, posters about Georgi Zhukov appeared on Marshal Zhukov Boulevard, and on the streets of Lechita Tarasova, Pokryshkin and Artmonov on pilots. The initiative is carried out with the participation of the communication and advertising department in the city together with the Rishonim movement. This indicates municipalities - there is no need to build a digital platform if it is possible to integrate into the existing municipal infrastructure. An interactive map was created in Novorossiysk as part of the "Streets are named after them" project. Since June 2025, it has been used by teachers at school camps. Children use the links to learn biographies of heroes, information about exploits, memorials and plaques. The map is available to the public on the website of the Ministry of Education.
