      • Buildings No. 60 and 64 were built in 1938–1948 — they are among the first brick residential buildings on Varshavka.
      • The "Spanish" nickname comes from the residents — Spanish communists who fled Franco's regime.
      • Varshavskoye Highway has been known since the 14th century as the Serpukhov road.
      • In the 1920s a tram line was run along Varshavka — to Verkhniye Kotly and the village of Kolomenskoye.
