Formed it was in the 30s of the last century after the demolition of existing at this place Quarter, named in 1937 by building an arena, the facade of which forms the southern side of the square. And then came Luzhkov with his friend, the sculptor and built a temple merchants. Square did not, but there was disgusting in its architecture shopping center, vile fountains, and most importantly, there was a "river". On the spot where formerly flowed Neglinka made its parody filled with tap water and make it more fun (50 meters tomb of the Unknown Soldier), put sculptures of children's fairy tales. Since Maneyzhnaya area has become a favorite vacation spot of Muscovites. Almost every evening there lezginka dancing, swimming in the fountains, fight, drink, etc. The past week was very hot in Moscow and "River" made a large swimming pool.
