Upper Osanovo

March 2020 · 2 min read

Osanovo is a former village, and now a historical area on the banks of the Shogrash River in the southern residential area of ​​Vologda. In the XVIII-XIX centuries, the village was divided into two parts - Upper and Lower Osanovo and belonged to the Vologda district of the Vologda region.

Before the revolution, the Vologda city mayor was owned by the merchant Nikolai Aleksandrovich Volkov. These years are considered the "golden age" of Osanovo. The area was called the “Vologda Versailles”, the high society of the city gathered here, literary evenings were organized, and art exhibitions were organized.

The territory of Osanovo was officially included in the city line in the early 1990s, although the development of the surrounding countryside began in the 1930s and 1950s.

Now Osanovo is a post-apocalyptic species. I have been to many villages and cities, but here I saw cluttered house territories.

The housing stock consists of one- and two-story barracks.

All streets in the village are called Osanovo.

Almost every house has a parked car.

If there was a little more snow this winter, then when it melted, the streets in the village would have been difficult to drive through.

All houses are very dilapidated.

Near the houses there are a lot of trucks! it feels like only truck drivers live here.

The area in Osanovo is really very successful and beautiful for living. The houses are located on a hillside.

Here are just modern views a little depressing.

Upper Osanovo Street starts from Osanovsky driveway in Vologda and overlooks Okruzhnoye highway.

In the village there are also brick multi-storey buildings of different times of construction.

For all the time of my walk in this place I have not met a single passerby.

Something tells me that the heating in the huts is stove.

There are kitchen gardens next to the houses.

In the village of Osanovo there is a large livestock yard.

I have no data on the number of goals.

The main task of such walks is still to capture the dilapidated housing and the departing ancient and Soviet nature.

This will all disappear very quickly.

Even the farmyard judging by its appearance is on the verge of extinction.

It seems that here is a destroyed shed. But in fact, someone dumped firewood in his garden for kindle the stove.

Garage number fifteen.
