Coordinates: 55°48′10″N 37°44′41″E / 55.802777787778°N 37.744819454444°E Cherkizovskaya (Russian: Черки́зовская) is a station of the Moscow Metro, located on the Sokolnicheskaya Line. It opened in 1990 and was the work of architects V.A. Cheremin and A.L. Vigdorov. Cherkizovskaya is named the former village of Cherkizovo, now a district of Moscow. The design of the station is a single vault, with a curved ceiling and a platform free of pillars. The outer walls are faced with panels of corrugated metal. Both ends of the platform are decorated with stained-glass panels above the exit stairs. The station's vestibule sits on Okruzhnoy Prospekt near the intersection with Bolshaya Cherkizovskaya Street. In the distant future, Cherkizovskaya is intended to become part of the planned "Big Ring" line, serving as a transfer point to the Sokolnicheskaya Line. The provision for a new radial station already exists. Cherkizovskaya metro station is located very close to Lokomotiv Stadium. [edit] External links
