History of the territory of Northern Administrative District and Leningradsky Avenue is inseparably connected with history of Moscow and Russia as a whole.

One of the most important thoroughfares went here - a road to Tver, which connected the capital with Volga. After founding St. Petersburg, the road received a special status, it turned into a St. Petersburg highway which connected two political and economic centers of Russia. All business people of Russia used it to travel to Moscow: messengers with dispatches, brisk merchants with goods, aristocrats, imperial families.

Round the St. Petersburg road, large enterprises of the Russian state, medical and educational institutions concentrated.

The Petersburg road was a business road, and saved its significance up to now. Even now, when most of Moscow old streets lost their original significance, Leningradsky Avenue is a business route connecting two capital cities of Russia: Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Now the main transport nodal points of Northern Administrative District are: the Sheremetyevo Airport and the Northern River Station, "Route E95" - Leningradskoye Highway - originate here.

In the near future in plans for development of Northern Administrative District and Begovoy District - construction of another route which is alternative to Leningradskoye Highway; reconstruction (expansion) of Leningradsky Avenue and Leningradskoye Highway; expansion of bottlenecks of the Third Ring Road: near the crossing of Leningradsky Avenue with Begovaya Street, in Suschevsky Val Street near Sheremetyevskaya Street; reconstruction of Savelovsky Station Square.
