      • Until 1924 the boulevard was called Prechistensky; it was renamed for Gogol's 115th anniversary.
      • The avenue and the roadways lie at different levels because the Chertory stream, with its uneven banks, once ran where the outer roadway is.
      • House no. 8 is an experimental communal house of 1929–1930 with two-level flats and "cupboard kitchens".
      • The Decembrist Mikhail Naryshkin lived in the estate at no. 10, and Ryleyev and Pushchin came to see him.
      • Since 1956 the estate at no. 14 has housed the Central Chess Club.
      • Stalin's son Vasily and the intelligence officer Rudolf Abel lived at no. 7.
