Pavlovo Pole is a residential area and historical district of Kharkov, separated from the central (Nagornaya) part of the city by Sarzhin Yar. It was named after the merchant Pavlov, after whose department store ("Pavlov's House") Pavlovskaya Square was named and who owned part of this then suburban area in the mid-19th century. On the eve of the start of construction, all of Pavlovo Pole was plowed up for vegetable gardens, and on weekends, residents of the Dzerzhinsky District would walk up to Sarzhiny Yar along a dusty village street (later Lenin Avenue, now Nauki Avenue), descend into it along steep paths, quench their thirst at the spring and, having filled their bottles with cold water, climb with considerable difficulty to Pavlovo Pole and wander through the scorching sun to their plots of land that stretched to the forest where Derevyanko Street now runs.

In 1970, Derevyanko was connected to the Nagorny district of the city by Frontovaya Street along the dam of Komsomolskoye Lake in Sarzhin Yar. Initially, the detailed planning project for the Pavlovo Pole residential area, according to which construction began in 1956, was prepared by architects A. G. Krykin, L. M. Tyulpa and I. Ya. Its architectural planning system was based on regular development of small blocks of 8-12 hectares each. The three blocks that were erected later became part of microdistricts No. 1 and 2 (both sides of Lenin Avenue, at the corners of Otakara Yarosha Street). The authors of the development of these blocks are architects B. G. Klein, A. S. Proskurnin and A. P. Pavlenko. New buildings in Pavlovo Pole. 2011 In 1958, the final development project was developed with a modern, progressive for that time, solution in the form of a system of five large microdistricts. In the planning of the area, various principles of microzoning were applied for the first time in Kharkov and the search for various methods of organizing development was reflected: perimeter-symmetrical (blocks No. 1 and 2), row and free (microdistrict No. 5), mixed, with the allocation of architectural dominants (microdistrict No. 6) [8]. In 1969, the construction of the first 14-storey building in Kharkov began. The compositional axes of the area are Lenin Avenue (now Nauki Avenue) and 23 August Street adjoining it perpendicularly. The development of 23 August Street along the boulevard is formed by 14-storey residential buildings, united by large stores for various purposes on the first floor. This development creates a memorable silhouette of the entire residential area. The authors of the solution are architects G. M. Sokolovsky, L. N. Loevskaya and V. S. Vasiliev[6]. The development of the area as a whole was completed in 1974, with the exception of the Lesopark, numerous private sector and point development. According to estimates, as of May 2012, 65,600 residents lived in Pavlovo Pole.
