Как правильно склонять фамилию нашего нового мэра (г. Новосибирск):
«избранному мэру Анатолию Локотю», как написано на нашем новостном сайте http://news.ngs.ru/more/1775311/,
или «мэра Новосибирска Анатолия Локтя», как пишут на новостном портале RBC
http://nsk.rbc.ru/nsk_freenews/10/04/2014/916936.shtml

Спасибо!!

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

См. ответ на вопрос № 274377.

Здравствуйте!
В нашем городе Новосибирске теперь новый мэр по фамилии Локоть (мужчина). Но мы до сих пор не можем понять, как правильно склонять эту фамилию. Большинство пишет и говорит «у Локтя», но многие — используют вариант «у ЛокОтя». А в народе некоторые вообще ставят при этом ударение на последний слог: «у ЛоктЯ».

Так как же все-таки правильно произносить фамилию Локоть, например, в родительном падеже? Спасибо!

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Мужскую фамилию Локоть можно склонять двояким образом: с выпадением гласного (Локтя, Локтю) и без выпадения гласного (Локотя, Локотю). Вообще говоря, фамилии всегда лучше склонять без выпадения гласного, т. к. они выполняют в том числе и юридическую функцию. Но окончательный выбор в таких случаях – за носителем фамилии.

Здравствуйте! Скажите пожалуйста как правильно пишется:
«по новосибирскому времени» или «»по-новосибирскому времени».
В разных СМИ пишут то так, то так. Если можно то ссылку на правило.
Спасибо.

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Правильно: по новосибирскому времени. Ошибка связана с тем, что пишущие вспоминают (не к месту) правило: пишутся через дефис наречия с приставкой по-, образованные от прилагательных и местоимений и оканчивающиеся на —ому, -ему, -цки, -ски, -ьи (по-прежнему, по-новому, по-вашему, по-дружески и т. д.). Но в рассматриваемом примере нет наречия, а есть прилагательное новосибирскому, относящееся к существительному времени. Поэтому нет никаких оснований для постановки дефиса.

Подскажите, пожалуйста, как правильно пишется и почему:
«житель города Новосибирск» или «житель города Новосибирска».
«житель города Москва» или «житель Москвы» или «житель города Москвы» и т.п.
Есть ли общее правило для таких случаев?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

См.  «Письмовник».

Как правильно писать «Сотрудники компании награждены медалью «За вклад в развитие Новосибирской области» или медалями»?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Верно: сотрудники награждены медалями.

Здравствуйте! В Новосибирске есть микрорайон «Щ». Такое название тоже должно писаться без кавычек?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Сложный вопрос. С одной стороны, географические и административно-территориальные названия пишутся без кавычек. С другой стороны, именно в таком – необычном – названии кавычки могут быть уместны: они подскажут читателю (особенно незнакомому с топонимикой Новосибирска), что «Щ» – это не какое-либо сокращение или зашифрованное наименование (ср.: микрорайон Щ и уездный город N), а самое что ни на есть настоящее название.

Итак, можно дать следующую рекомендацию. Написание без кавычек нормально в изданиях, которые адресованы читателю, знающему, что такое микрорайон Щ (например, в районной газете, если таковая существует). В остальных случаях кавычки лучше поставить.

как правильно писать Новосибирский завод ОАО «….» или новосибирский завод ОАО «…»

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Корректно: ОАО «Новосибирский завод»; если речь идет о новосибирском филиале какого-либо ОАО – новосибирский завод ОАО «…».

Новосибирка (жительница Новосибирска) не совсем благозвучно звучит, режет слух. Так же как и житомирка, ворка, где правильные варианты житомирянка (мир — мирянка), воровка. Причём житомирянками себя называют сами жительницы Житомира. Так может благозвучнее и правильнее писать и говорить:
1) новосибирячка (Сибирь — сибирячка, если брать подобие Житомир — житомирянка от мир — мирянка)?
2) новосибирчанка? Здесь вариант от уже существующих подобных на -ск: Иркутск — иркутянка, Якутск — якутянка, Бердск (город Новосибирской области) — бердчанка. Здесь суффиксы -чанка (-янка) используются т.к. использование -ичка будет неблагозвучно (режет слух бердичка, якутичка и проч.). Суффикс -ичка используется в следующих местах на -ск: Томск — томичка, Омск — омичка и для Новосибирска не подходит (режет слух новосибиричка).

Так какой из предложенных вариантов лучше и благозвучнее «новосибирки»: «новосибирячка» или «новосибирчанка»?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Ни новосибирячка, ни новосибирчанка не являются нормативными вариантами. В образовании названий жителей участвуют суффиксы —як, -итянин, -ич, -ичанин, -чанин, -янин, -ец и др., при этом в каждом случае название индивидуально (зачастую обусловлено многолетней или даже многовековой традицией) и какие-либо аналогии (если сибиряк, сибирячка, то должно быть новосибиряк, новосибирячка) не проходят; критерий нормативности варианта – фиксация в нормативных словарях русского языка. В словаре И. Л. Городецкой, Е. А. Левашова «Русские названия жителей» (М., 2003) зафиксировано: новосибирцы, новосибирец, новосибирка.

Кажущаяся неблагозвучность названия объясняется некоторыми особенностями образования и функционирования слов – названий жителей. Парадоксом русского языка является малое количество названий женского рода, соотносимых с названиями на -ец (а именно этот суффикс является основным при образовании этнохоронимов, с его помощью образовано и новосибирец), при этом очень многие формы на -к(а) (в том числе новосибирка) вынуждены преодолевать некий барьер ненормативного восприятия.

В заключение отметим, что критерий «режет слух», «не звучит» и т. п. не может и не должен быть определяющим: все люди разные, и то, что «не звучит» для одного носителя языка, вполне «звучит» для другого – и наоборот. Именно поэтому существуют нормативные словари, задача которых – зафиксировать литературную норму и отделить правильные варианты от неправильных.

Добрый день. Хотелось бы уточнить. В Новосибирске есть Академгородок. Как правильно будет его написание с прописной или строчной буквы?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Это название пишется с прописной буквы: Академгородок.

Здравствуйте! Нужны ли кавычки при написании направлений, например: Москва-Владивосток, Красноярск_Новосибирск-Томск?

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Кавычки не нужны; между названиями городов ставится тире с пробелами: Москва –Владивосток, Красноярск – Новосибирск – Томск.

Как правильно написать:в избирательном участке города Новосибирск или города Новосибирска? Каковы общие правила склонения названий населённых пунктов?
Благодарю за ответ.
Санкт-Петербург Д. А.

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Верно: _Новосибирска_. См. в http://spravka.gramota.ru/blang.html?id=167 [«Письмовнике»].

Скажите, пожалуйста, нужно ли писать с прописной неофициальное название, например, ДК Октябрьской революции в Новосибирске в народе именуют «коброй»:»Уже через пару лет в крошечном зале «Кобры» (ДК Октябрьской революции) негде было яблоку упасть». Спасибо.

Ответ справочной службы русского языка

Следует писать с большой буквы в кавычках: _…именуют «Коброй», в зале «Кобры»_.

Novosibirsk (, also ;^[18][19] Russian: Новосиби́рск, IPA: [nəvəsʲɪˈbʲirsk] (listen)) is the largest city and administrative centre of Novosibirsk Oblast and Siberian Federal District in Russia. As of the 2021 Census, it had a population of 1,633,595,^[20] making it the most populous city in Siberia and the third-most populous city in Russia. The city is located in southwestern Siberia, on the banks of the Ob River.^[21]

Novosibirsk was founded in 1893 on the Ob River crossing point of the future Trans-Siberian Railway, where the Novosibirsk Rail Bridge was constructed. Originally named Novonikolayevsk (Pre-reform orthography: Ново-Николаевскъ, IPA: [ˈnovə nʲɪkɐˈla(j)ɪfsk]; «New Nicholas») in honor of Emperor Nicholas II, the city rapidly grew into a major transport, commercial, and industrial hub. Novosibirsk was ravaged by the Russian Civil War but recovered during the early Soviet period and gained its present name, Novosibirsk («New Siberia»), in 1926. Under the leadership of Joseph Stalin, Novosibirsk became one of the largest industrial centers of Siberia. Following the outbreak of World War II, the city hosted many factories relocated from the Russian core.

Novosibirsk is home to numerous Russian corporations, the neo-Byzantine Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the Novosibirsk Opera and Ballet Theatre, as well as the Novosibirsk Zoo. It is served by Tolmachevo Airport, the busiest airport in Siberia.^[22]

History[edit]

Novosibirsk was founded on the right side of the Ob, near an area traditionally inhabited by Chat Tatars (Chertovo gorodishche [ru]). The Russian town originated on 30 April 1893^[3] at the future site of a Trans-Siberian Railway bridge crossing the great Siberian river, the Ob, and in 1895 became known as Novonikolayevsk (Новониколаевск),^[4] in honor both of Saint Nicholas^{[citation needed]} and of the new reigning Tsar, Nicholas II.^[23] It superseded Bolshoye Krivoshchyokovo village, located on the opposite side of the Ob, which was founded in 1696 and was resettled in 1893 due to the construction of the Novosibirsk Rail Bridge. The bridge, completed in the spring of 1897, made the new settlement a regional transport hub. The importance of the city further increased with the completion of the Turkestan–Siberia Railway in the early 20th century. The new railway connected Novonikolayevsk directly with Central Asia and the Caspian Sea.^[24]

At the time of the bridge’s opening, Novonikolayevsk had a population of 7,800 people. The settlement developed rapidly. Its first bank opened in 1906, and a total of five banks were operating by 1915. In 1907, Novonikolayevsk, now with a population exceeding 47,000, was granted town status with full rights for self-government. During the pre-revolutionary period, the population of Novonikolayevsk reached 80,000. The city had steady and rapid economic growth, becoming one of the largest commercial and industrial centers of Siberia. It developed a significant agricultural-processing industry,^[25] as well as a power station, iron foundry, commodity market, several banks, and commercial and shipping companies. By 1917, the city had seven Orthodox churches and one Roman Catholic Church, along with several cinemas, forty primary schools, a high school, a teaching seminary, and the Romanov House non-classical secondary school. In 1913, Novonikolayevsk became one of the first places in Russia to institute compulsory primary education.^[24]

The Russian Civil War of 1917-1923 took a toll on the city. Wartime epidemics, especially typhus and cholera, claimed thousands of lives. In the course of the war, the Ob River Bridge was destroyed. For the first time in the city’s history, the population of Novonikolayevsk began to decline. The Soviet Workers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies of Novonikolayevsk took control of the city in December 1917. In May 1918, the Czechoslovak Legion rose in opposition to the revolutionary government and, together with the White Guards, captured Novonikolayevsk (26 May 1918). The Red Army took the city in 1919, retaining it throughout the rest of the Civil War.^[24]

Novonikolayevsk began reconstruction in 1921 at the start of Lenin’s New Economic Policy period (1921-1928). The city formed part of Tomsk Governorate and served as its administrative center from 23 December 1919 to 14 March 1920. Between 13 June 1921 and 25 May 1925, it served as the administrative center of Novonikolayevsk Governorate [ru], which was separated from Tomsk Governorate.^{[citation needed]} The city received its present name on 12 September 1926,^[4] —Novosibirsk, which, in the Russian language, translates roughly as «New Siberian [town]».

After the Soviet Union abolished governorates in 1929, the city served as the administrative center of the Siberian Krai until 23 July 1930, and of West Siberian Krai until 28 September 1937, when that krai was split into Novosibirsk Oblast and Altai Krai.^[26] Since then, it has served as the administrative center of Novosibirsk Oblast.^[26]

The Monument to the Heroes of the Revolution, erected in the center of the city in 1922, became one of the chief historic sites (essentially every child had to visit the monument on school field-trips during the Soviet years). Neglect in the 1990s while other areas were redeveloped helped preserve it in the post-Soviet era.^{[citation needed]}

During Stalin’s industrialization effort, Novosibirsk secured its place as one of the largest industrial centers of Siberia. Several massive industrial facilities developed, including the ‘Sibkombain’ plant, specializing in the production of heavy mining equipment. Additionally, a metal-processing plant, a food-processing plant, and other industrial enterprises and factories were built, as well as a new power station. The great Soviet famine of 1932–33 resulted in more than 170,000 rural refugees seeking food and safety in Novosibirsk. They were settled in barracks at the outskirts of the city, giving rise to slums.^[24] Its rapid growth and industrialization led to Novosibirsk being nicknamed the «Chicago of Siberia».^[28]

Tram rails were laid down in 1934, by which time the population had reached 287,000, making Novosibirsk the largest city in Siberia. The following year the original road bridge over the Ob River was replaced by the new Kommunalny bridge.^[24]

Between 1941 and 1942 the Soviets crated up and relocated more than 50 substantial factories from western Russia to Novosibirsk in order to reduce the risk of their destruction through war, and at this time the city became a major supply base for the Red Army. During this period the city also received more than 140,000 refugees.^{[citation needed]}

The rapid growth of the city prompted the construction during the 1950s of a hydroelectric power station with a capacity of 400 megawatts,^[29] necessitating the creation of a giant water reservoir, now known as the Ob Sea. As a direct result of the station’s construction, vast areas of fertile land were flooded, as were relic pine woods in the area; additionally, the new open space created by the reservoir’s surface caused average wind speeds to double, increasing the rate of soil erosion.^[24]

In the 1950s, the Soviet Government directed the building of a center for scientific research in Novosibirsk, and in 1957 the multi-facility scientific research complex of Akademgorodok was constructed about 30 km (19 mi) south of the city center. The Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences (formerly the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union) has its headquarters in Akademgorodok, and the town hosts more than 35 research institutes and universities, among them Novosibirsk State University, one of the top Russian schools in natural sciences and mathematics. Although it possesses a fully autonomous infrastructure, Akademgorodok is administered by Novosibirsk.^{[citation needed]}

On 2 September 1962, the population of Novosibirsk reached one million. At that time, it was the youngest city in the world with the population exceeding one million. Novosibirsk took fewer than seventy years to achieve this milestone.^[30] On 8 June 1965, the city was the scene of a dramatic aerial stunt when Lieutenant Valentin Privalov flew his MiG-17 under the October Bridge; an image which purportedly showed the event was later found to be a photocollage.^[31][32] In 1979, work began on the Novosibirsk Metro Transit System, culminating in the opening of the first line in 1985.^[24]

On 1 August 2008, Novosibirsk was in the center of the path of a solar eclipse, with a duration of 2 minutes and 20 seconds.^{[citation needed]}

Demographics[edit]

Novosibirsk population

1979 Census	1,312,480[33]
1989 Census	1,436,516[34]
2002 Census	1,425,508[35]
2010 Census	1,473,754[8]

According to the Federal State Statistics Service, in January 2021 the number of residents came to 1,620,162.^[36] This is an increase compared to the 2010 census, when the population of the city was 1,473,754.^[8]

People from over eighty ethnicities and nationalities reside in Novosibirsk. The largest groups are Russian, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Tatar, German, and Tajik.^[37]

Ecology[edit]

Flora[edit]

The best-known trees native to Novosibirsk are birch, pine, and aspen. Some mountain ash, hawthorn, spruce, and fir are also present. European species of apple, ash, elm, linden, and oak have been successfully introduced.^{[citation needed]}

Geography[edit]

Urban layout[edit]

The layout of the modern city is based on the planning of the post-revolution period. Before 1917, there was no traditional city center in Novo-nikolayevsk. The main buildings of the railway management and the nearby railway station as well as the most important cathedral and the complex of the city’s government were spread throughout the city. This changed following the revolution, with Lenin House built in 1925 in what was traditionally the main avenue, Krasny Prospekt while the first Lenin monument was built in Barnaulskaya Street, closer to the railway station. And thus, until the late 1920s, Novosibirsk did not have a clearly defined city center. The 1930s brought many changes to the development of the city: Its former Bazarnaya Ploschad (Market Square) was chosen as the site for the construction of the Opera House which started in 1931. The Stalin Park of Culture and Rest was established some distance from the main avenue and the city’s administrative buildings and park created a radial around the Bazarnaya Ploschad.^[38]

Location[edit]

The city stands on the banks of the Ob River in the West Siberian Plain. To the south of the city lies the Priobskoye Plateau. The nearest major cities are Barnaul,^[39] Krasnoyarsk, Omsk and Astana.^{[citation needed]}

Climate[edit]

The climate in Novosibirsk is typical of Siberia, with dry winters and far-below-freezing winter temperatures. Among the reasons for these temperatures are the absence of a nearby ocean and the lack of tall mountains at the north of Novosibirsk that could have held back freezing Arctic winds.^{[citation needed]} In fact, Novosibirsk is the second-farthest substantially populated city from the ocean, the first being Ürümqi in China.^{[citation needed]}

The climate is humid continental (Köppen Dfb), with warm summers and bitterly cold winters. Snow is frequent, falling on almost half of all winter days, but individual snowfalls are usually light. On average temperatures range in summer from +15 °C (59 °F) to +26 °C (79 °F) and in winter from −20 °C (−4 °F) to −12 °C (10 °F). However, winter temperatures can go as low as −30 °C (−22 °F) to −35 °C (−31 °F), and summer temperatures can go as high as +30 °C (86 °F) to +35 °C (95 °F). The difference between the highest- and lowest-recorded temperatures is 82 °C (148 °F).

Travellers coming from countries with mild climates may find Novosibirsk’s winter extremely cold, but it is a lot less severe than further east in Siberia and the Russian Far East, especially considering its latitude of 55°N. For example, Novosibirsk is less cold during winter nights than Spassk-Dalny at eleven degrees lower latitude. It also is less cold in winter than the largest far eastern city of Khabarovsk and during nights even the Pacific coastal town of Sovetskaya Gavan, both underneath 49°N. At times, bitter cold may hold for some days, but temperatures of −40 °C (−40 °F) and lower do not occur every year.

Broadcasting[edit]

Novosibirsk is home to Russia’s most powerful shortwave relay station east of the Ural mountains. This relay station can reach most of South Asia, the Middle East, and China. The Magadan and Vladivostok relay stations when operated in conjunction with Novosibirsk can guarantee that the Voice of Russia or any other broadcaster renting time at Novosibirsk is heard in the intended target area.

Transportation[edit]

International and intercity transportation[edit]

Airports[edit]

The city is served by Novosibirsk Tolmachevo Airport, which connects Novosibirsk with most of Russia’s largest cities and most countries of Europe and Asia. Tolmachevo is the hub for S7 Airlines.

There is also the auxiliary Yeltsovka Airport.

A smaller field for general aviation at Novosibirsk Severny Airport was closed in 2012. In August 2008, the First World Aerobatics Championship in Yak-52 aircraft was held at the airport.^[42]

Railway stations[edit]

Novosibirsk is a major stop on the Trans-Siberian Railway and the north end of Turkestan–Siberia Railway. The main railway station of Novosibirsk is Novosibirsk-Glavny station («Glavny» means «Main») which is located in the centre of the right bank part of the city. There are also Novosibirsk-Zapadny («Zapadny» means «Western»), Novosibirsk-Vostochny («Vostochny» means «Eastern»), and Novosibirsk-Yuzhny («Yuzhny» means «Southern») railway stations in Novosibirsk. All intercity trains passing through the aforementioned stations stop at these stations. In addition, there are halts where only suburban trains stops, for example Inskaya, Seyatel, Razyezd Inya, and many others.

The many regular intercity trains connect Novosibirsk with Russian cities in Siberia, the Far East, Ural, and European Russia. International trains connect the city with China, Mongolia, Belarus, and countries in Central Asia.

Bus stations[edit]

The old Novosibirsk Bus Station located on Krasny Avenue in the right bank part of the city near Kommunalny Bridge was opened in 1964 and eventually closed on 6 April 2020.^[43] There is a plan to build some new bus stations on the periphery of the city; the first of these new bus stations was built on Gusinobrodskoe Сhaussee and was opened on 18 December 2019.^[44] Until the completion of remaining new bus stations, some bus stops in the city are being used by intercity bus services.

The many regular intercity/international bus routes connect Novosibirsk with most cities of the southern part of Western Siberia and major cities of Central Asia.

River passenger terminals[edit]

The building of Novosibirsk river passenger terminal (Russian: Речной вокзал) on the Ob river was opened in 1974.^[45] Later, the self-titled metro station was opened near the building of the terminal. On 7 March 2003, there was the strong fire in the building of the terminal.^[46] The part of the building was beyond repair and was demolished.

At present day, only two regular passenger lines are operational: Novosibirsk — Kudryash island — Yagodnaya — Cheremushki — Novaya Zarya — Bibikha — Sedova Zaimka and Novosibirsk — Berdsk.^[47] There are also cruises on the Ob river and the Novosibirsk Reservoir including to Tomsk and Barnaul.

Novosibirsk (, also ;^[18][19] Russian: Новосиби́рск, IPA: [nəvəsʲɪˈbʲirsk] (listen)) is the largest city and administrative centre of Novosibirsk Oblast and Siberian Federal District in Russia. As of the 2021 Census, it had a population of 1,633,595,^[20] making it the most populous city in Siberia and the third-most populous city in Russia. The city is located in southwestern Siberia, on the banks of the Ob River.^[21]

Novosibirsk was founded in 1893 on the Ob River crossing point of the future Trans-Siberian Railway, where the Novosibirsk Rail Bridge was constructed. Originally named Novonikolayevsk (Pre-reform orthography: Ново-Николаевскъ, IPA: [ˈnovə nʲɪkɐˈla(j)ɪfsk]; «New Nicholas») in honor of Emperor Nicholas II, the city rapidly grew into a major transport, commercial, and industrial hub. Novosibirsk was ravaged by the Russian Civil War but recovered during the early Soviet period and gained its present name, Novosibirsk («New Siberia»), in 1926. Under the leadership of Joseph Stalin, Novosibirsk became one of the largest industrial centers of Siberia. Following the outbreak of World War II, the city hosted many factories relocated from the Russian core.

Novosibirsk is home to numerous Russian corporations, the neo-Byzantine Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the Novosibirsk Opera and Ballet Theatre, as well as the Novosibirsk Zoo. It is served by Tolmachevo Airport, the busiest airport in Siberia.^[22]

History[edit]

Novosibirsk was founded on the right side of the Ob, near an area traditionally inhabited by Chat Tatars (Chertovo gorodishche [ru]). The Russian town originated on 30 April 1893^[3] at the future site of a Trans-Siberian Railway bridge crossing the great Siberian river, the Ob, and in 1895 became known as Novonikolayevsk (Новониколаевск),^[4] in honor both of Saint Nicholas^{[citation needed]} and of the new reigning Tsar, Nicholas II.^[23] It superseded Bolshoye Krivoshchyokovo village, located on the opposite side of the Ob, which was founded in 1696 and was resettled in 1893 due to the construction of the Novosibirsk Rail Bridge. The bridge, completed in the spring of 1897, made the new settlement a regional transport hub. The importance of the city further increased with the completion of the Turkestan–Siberia Railway in the early 20th century. The new railway connected Novonikolayevsk directly with Central Asia and the Caspian Sea.^[24]

At the time of the bridge’s opening, Novonikolayevsk had a population of 7,800 people. The settlement developed rapidly. Its first bank opened in 1906, and a total of five banks were operating by 1915. In 1907, Novonikolayevsk, now with a population exceeding 47,000, was granted town status with full rights for self-government. During the pre-revolutionary period, the population of Novonikolayevsk reached 80,000. The city had steady and rapid economic growth, becoming one of the largest commercial and industrial centers of Siberia. It developed a significant agricultural-processing industry,^[25] as well as a power station, iron foundry, commodity market, several banks, and commercial and shipping companies. By 1917, the city had seven Orthodox churches and one Roman Catholic Church, along with several cinemas, forty primary schools, a high school, a teaching seminary, and the Romanov House non-classical secondary school. In 1913, Novonikolayevsk became one of the first places in Russia to institute compulsory primary education.^[24]

The Russian Civil War of 1917-1923 took a toll on the city. Wartime epidemics, especially typhus and cholera, claimed thousands of lives. In the course of the war, the Ob River Bridge was destroyed. For the first time in the city’s history, the population of Novonikolayevsk began to decline. The Soviet Workers’ and Soldiers’ Deputies of Novonikolayevsk took control of the city in December 1917. In May 1918, the Czechoslovak Legion rose in opposition to the revolutionary government and, together with the White Guards, captured Novonikolayevsk (26 May 1918). The Red Army took the city in 1919, retaining it throughout the rest of the Civil War.^[24]

Novonikolayevsk began reconstruction in 1921 at the start of Lenin’s New Economic Policy period (1921-1928). The city formed part of Tomsk Governorate and served as its administrative center from 23 December 1919 to 14 March 1920. Between 13 June 1921 and 25 May 1925, it served as the administrative center of Novonikolayevsk Governorate [ru], which was separated from Tomsk Governorate.^{[citation needed]} The city received its present name on 12 September 1926,^[4] —Novosibirsk, which, in the Russian language, translates roughly as «New Siberian [town]».

After the Soviet Union abolished governorates in 1929, the city served as the administrative center of the Siberian Krai until 23 July 1930, and of West Siberian Krai until 28 September 1937, when that krai was split into Novosibirsk Oblast and Altai Krai.^[26] Since then, it has served as the administrative center of Novosibirsk Oblast.^[26]

The Monument to the Heroes of the Revolution, erected in the center of the city in 1922, became one of the chief historic sites (essentially every child had to visit the monument on school field-trips during the Soviet years). Neglect in the 1990s while other areas were redeveloped helped preserve it in the post-Soviet era.^{[citation needed]}

During Stalin’s industrialization effort, Novosibirsk secured its place as one of the largest industrial centers of Siberia. Several massive industrial facilities developed, including the ‘Sibkombain’ plant, specializing in the production of heavy mining equipment. Additionally, a metal-processing plant, a food-processing plant, and other industrial enterprises and factories were built, as well as a new power station. The great Soviet famine of 1932–33 resulted in more than 170,000 rural refugees seeking food and safety in Novosibirsk. They were settled in barracks at the outskirts of the city, giving rise to slums.^[24] Its rapid growth and industrialization led to Novosibirsk being nicknamed the «Chicago of Siberia».^[28]

Tram rails were laid down in 1934, by which time the population had reached 287,000, making Novosibirsk the largest city in Siberia. The following year the original road bridge over the Ob River was replaced by the new Kommunalny bridge.^[24]

Between 1941 and 1942 the Soviets crated up and relocated more than 50 substantial factories from western Russia to Novosibirsk in order to reduce the risk of their destruction through war, and at this time the city became a major supply base for the Red Army. During this period the city also received more than 140,000 refugees.^{[citation needed]}

The rapid growth of the city prompted the construction during the 1950s of a hydroelectric power station with a capacity of 400 megawatts,^[29] necessitating the creation of a giant water reservoir, now known as the Ob Sea. As a direct result of the station’s construction, vast areas of fertile land were flooded, as were relic pine woods in the area; additionally, the new open space created by the reservoir’s surface caused average wind speeds to double, increasing the rate of soil erosion.^[24]

In the 1950s, the Soviet Government directed the building of a center for scientific research in Novosibirsk, and in 1957 the multi-facility scientific research complex of Akademgorodok was constructed about 30 km (19 mi) south of the city center. The Siberian Division of the Russian Academy of Sciences (formerly the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union) has its headquarters in Akademgorodok, and the town hosts more than 35 research institutes and universities, among them Novosibirsk State University, one of the top Russian schools in natural sciences and mathematics. Although it possesses a fully autonomous infrastructure, Akademgorodok is administered by Novosibirsk.^{[citation needed]}

On 2 September 1962, the population of Novosibirsk reached one million. At that time, it was the youngest city in the world with the population exceeding one million. Novosibirsk took fewer than seventy years to achieve this milestone.^[30] On 8 June 1965, the city was the scene of a dramatic aerial stunt when Lieutenant Valentin Privalov flew his MiG-17 under the October Bridge; an image which purportedly showed the event was later found to be a photocollage.^[31][32] In 1979, work began on the Novosibirsk Metro Transit System, culminating in the opening of the first line in 1985.^[24]

On 1 August 2008, Novosibirsk was in the center of the path of a solar eclipse, with a duration of 2 minutes and 20 seconds.^{[citation needed]}

Administrative and municipal status[edit]

Novosibirsk is the administrative center of the oblast^[2] and, within the framework of administrative divisions, it also serves as the administrative center of Novosibirsky District,^[1] even though it is not a part of it.^[10] As an administrative division, it is incorporated separately as the City of Novosibirsk^[10]—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.^{[citation needed]} As a municipal division, the City of Novosibirsk is incorporated as Novosibirsk Urban Okrug.^[11]

Demographics[edit]

Novosibirsk population

1979 Census	1,312,480[33]
1989 Census	1,436,516[34]
2002 Census	1,425,508[35]
2010 Census	1,473,754[8]

According to the Federal State Statistics Service, in January 2021 the number of residents came to 1,620,162.^[36] This is an increase compared to the 2010 census, when the population of the city was 1,473,754.^[8]

People from over eighty ethnicities and nationalities reside in Novosibirsk. The largest groups are Russian, Ukrainian, Uzbek, Tatar, German, and Tajik.^[37]

Ecology[edit]

Flora[edit]

The best-known trees native to Novosibirsk are birch, pine, and aspen. Some mountain ash, hawthorn, spruce, and fir are also present. European species of apple, ash, elm, linden, and oak have been successfully introduced.^{[citation needed]}

Geography[edit]

Urban layout[edit]

The layout of the modern city is based on the planning of the post-revolution period. Before 1917, there was no traditional city center in Novo-nikolayevsk. The main buildings of the railway management and the nearby railway station as well as the most important cathedral and the complex of the city’s government were spread throughout the city. This changed following the revolution, with Lenin House built in 1925 in what was traditionally the main avenue, Krasny Prospekt while the first Lenin monument was built in Barnaulskaya Street, closer to the railway station. And thus, until the late 1920s, Novosibirsk did not have a clearly defined city center. The 1930s brought many changes to the development of the city: Its former Bazarnaya Ploschad (Market Square) was chosen as the site for the construction of the Opera House which started in 1931. The Stalin Park of Culture and Rest was established some distance from the main avenue and the city’s administrative buildings and park created a radial around the Bazarnaya Ploschad.^[38]

Location[edit]

The city stands on the banks of the Ob River in the West Siberian Plain. To the south of the city lies the Priobskoye Plateau. The nearest major cities are Barnaul,^[39] Krasnoyarsk, Omsk and Astana.^{[citation needed]}

Climate[edit]

The climate in Novosibirsk is typical of Siberia, with dry winters and far-below-freezing winter temperatures. Among the reasons for these temperatures are the absence of a nearby ocean and the lack of tall mountains at the north of Novosibirsk that could have held back freezing Arctic winds.^{[citation needed]} In fact, Novosibirsk is the second-farthest substantially populated city from the ocean, the first being Ürümqi in China.^{[citation needed]}

The climate is humid continental (Köppen Dfb), with warm summers and bitterly cold winters. Snow is frequent, falling on almost half of all winter days, but individual snowfalls are usually light. On average temperatures range in summer from +15 °C (59 °F) to +26 °C (79 °F) and in winter from −20 °C (−4 °F) to −12 °C (10 °F). However, winter temperatures can go as low as −30 °C (−22 °F) to −35 °C (−31 °F), and summer temperatures can go as high as +30 °C (86 °F) to +35 °C (95 °F). The difference between the highest- and lowest-recorded temperatures is 82 °C (148 °F).

Travellers coming from countries with mild climates may find Novosibirsk’s winter extremely cold, but it is a lot less severe than further east in Siberia and the Russian Far East, especially considering its latitude of 55°N. For example, Novosibirsk is less cold during winter nights than Spassk-Dalny at eleven degrees lower latitude. It also is less cold in winter than the largest far eastern city of Khabarovsk and during nights even the Pacific coastal town of Sovetskaya Gavan, both underneath 49°N. At times, bitter cold may hold for some days, but temperatures of −40 °C (−40 °F) and lower do not occur every year.

Broadcasting[edit]

Novosibirsk is home to Russia’s most powerful shortwave relay station east of the Ural mountains. This relay station can reach most of South Asia, the Middle East, and China. The Magadan and Vladivostok relay stations when operated in conjunction with Novosibirsk can guarantee that the Voice of Russia or any other broadcaster renting time at Novosibirsk is heard in the intended target area.

Transportation[edit]

International and intercity transportation[edit]

Airports[edit]

The city is served by Novosibirsk Tolmachevo Airport, which connects Novosibirsk with most of Russia’s largest cities and most countries of Europe and Asia. Tolmachevo is the hub for S7 Airlines.

There is also the auxiliary Yeltsovka Airport.

A smaller field for general aviation at Novosibirsk Severny Airport was closed in 2012. In August 2008, the First World Aerobatics Championship in Yak-52 aircraft was held at the airport.^[42]

Railway stations[edit]

Novosibirsk is a major stop on the Trans-Siberian Railway and the north end of Turkestan–Siberia Railway. The main railway station of Novosibirsk is Novosibirsk-Glavny station («Glavny» means «Main») which is located in the centre of the right bank part of the city. There are also Novosibirsk-Zapadny («Zapadny» means «Western»), Novosibirsk-Vostochny («Vostochny» means «Eastern»), and Novosibirsk-Yuzhny («Yuzhny» means «Southern») railway stations in Novosibirsk. All intercity trains passing through the aforementioned stations stop at these stations. In addition, there are halts where only suburban trains stops, for example Inskaya, Seyatel, Razyezd Inya, and many others.

The many regular intercity trains connect Novosibirsk with Russian cities in Siberia, the Far East, Ural, and European Russia. International trains connect the city with China, Mongolia, Belarus, and countries in Central Asia.

Bus stations[edit]

The old Novosibirsk Bus Station located on Krasny Avenue in the right bank part of the city near Kommunalny Bridge was opened in 1964 and eventually closed on 6 April 2020.^[43] There is a plan to build some new bus stations on the periphery of the city; the first of these new bus stations was built on Gusinobrodskoe Сhaussee and was opened on 18 December 2019.^[44] Until the completion of remaining new bus stations, some bus stops in the city are being used by intercity bus services.

The many regular intercity/international bus routes connect Novosibirsk with most cities of the southern part of Western Siberia and major cities of Central Asia.

River passenger terminals[edit]

The building of Novosibirsk river passenger terminal (Russian: Речной вокзал) on the Ob river was opened in 1974.^[45] Later, the self-titled metro station was opened near the building of the terminal. On 7 March 2003, there was the strong fire in the building of the terminal.^[46] The part of the building was beyond repair and was demolished.

At present day, only two regular passenger lines are operational: Novosibirsk — Kudryash island — Yagodnaya — Cheremushki — Novaya Zarya — Bibikha — Sedova Zaimka and Novosibirsk — Berdsk.^[47] There are also cruises on the Ob river and the Novosibirsk Reservoir including to Tomsk and Barnaul.
