Preobrazhenskaya Ploshchad

Preobrazhenskaya Ploshchad

Preobrazhenskaya Ploshchad ( _ru. Преображе́нская пло́щадь) "Transfiguration Square" is a Moscow Metro station on the Sokolnicheskaya Line. It is a pillar-trispan (or "sorokonozhka") design, with green marble pillars and tiled walls, dating to the height of that style's popularity in 1965. The architect was N.I. Demchinskiy.

Preobrazhenskaya Ploshchad's two vestibules are underground, with exits onto Preobrazhenskaya Square, Preobrazhenskiy Val, Bolshaya Cherkizovskaya and Krasnobogatyrskaya streets.

Between Preobrazhenskaya Ploshchad and Sokolniki trains cross the Yauza River on a concrete bridge designed by G. Suvorova.

When the station was opened it was the northern terminus of the line, and the tunnels extended only a short distance beyond the station. There were originally crossovers connecting the tunnels at this point, but it was disassembled when the line was extended in 1990.
