Tyoplyi Stan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tyopliy Stan (Russian: Тёплый Стан) is a station near the southern end of the Moscow Metro's Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya Line. It was built to pillar-trispan design and opened on November 6, 1987 and was a temporary terminus of the line. (Remains of a piston junction can still be seen after the station.) Because the extreme radius where Kaluzhskiy turns away almost westwards, Tyoplyi Stan, unlike the previous seven stations of the line is located at an angle to the Profosoyuznaya street. Both the walls and the transverse faces of the pillars are faced with brightly-coloured red ceramic tile. Grey marble was employed for the longitudinal faces of the pillars. The architects of Tyoply Stan were N.I. Shumakov, G.Mun, and N.Shurygina.
The entrances to the station are located at the intersection of Profsoyuznaya street and Novoyasenevskiy avenue. Its daily passenger traffic is 73,400 people.
