The Syretsky radius was started in the early 1990s, in the midst of economic hardships as a result of which, not only was it many years behind schedule it was also very slow to open new stations.
The station is not in the vicinity of houses, but is right next to the Syrets railway platform, and as a result most of its passengers are commuters coming from further northwestern districts of the city rather than local residents (which was its original intention).
In the far end of the central hall, is a neatly arranged artwork based on the same metallic themes.
The station has a large surface vestibule on the corner between the Kotovsky and Stetsenko/Schuseva streets (the latter changes name as it passes under the railway flyover).
Russian troops also fired at a Ukrainian military bus, creating an unknown amount of casualties.
