FARFOROVSKAYA STREET, a street running from Obukhovskoy Oborony Avenue to Sedova Street. Laid out in the second half of the 19th century and given the name Bolshaya Shchemilovka Street after the cognominal Shchemilovka township. From the 1940s, it was known as Farforovskaya Kolonia Street, and since 1957 under its present name, which it got from the neighbouring Porcelain Factory, today known as the Lomonosovsky Porcelain Factory. A section of Farforovskaya Street, up to Babushkina Street, was called Vladimirsky Lane from the 1890s until 1975. The Sacred Heart of Jesus Roman Catholic Church (1907-18, architect S. P. Galenzovsky, rebuilt) is located at the intersection of Farforovskaya Street and Babushkina Street. The area's major residential development took place in the 1930-60s. Farforovskaya Street is also the location of the "Vienna" Brewery (house No 1).
