A view from my window: Boudiuni Avenue This avenue had three names. Until 1922 it was called Slobodskaya Proezd, because Semenovskaya Sloboda was nearby. Then Mayersky proposed, because botanist Konstantin Mayer's gardening was also nearby. And in 1974, when Marshal Semyon Mikhailovich Bodioni died, the avenue began to bear his name. Bodioni held high positions in the People's Commissariat of Defense, always stressed the role of the cavalry, but at the same time supported the technical re-equipment of the army. Perhaps that is why it is symbolic that on this avenue, which was once on the outskirts of Moscow, the buildings of the Russo-French Dwarf Factory were located. He made aircraft engines. Then it started to be called "Saliot" to them. M. V. Fronza. Duplicate posts in max.
