A monument to Soviet statesman Vladimir Lenin was erected on October Revolution Day on 7 November 1957.

In 1987 the Alley of Busts memorial complex was established on the square to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the October Revolution.

In September 2017, the reconstruction of the square was completed, which resulted in the reduction ox the lanes and the creation of bicycle paths.

The number of lanes of the carriageway was reduced, and pedestrians with traffic flows were separated by bollards.

The staircase esplanade has been renewed, where an open amphitheater is equipped, in front of it there are two dry fountains illuminated at night.
