      • The ponds are a cascade on the Chernushka, a tributary of the Khimka, most of which has been piped underground.
      • In 1685 Rodion Streshnev ordered ponds dug in the upper reaches of the Chernushka and stocked with fish.
      • The middle ponds of the cascade were dug around 1968 in a marshy floodplain.
      • The name comes from the village of Ivankovo, where dachas appeared in the late 19th century, favorites of Moscow Art Theatre actors.
