History

In December 17, 2013 the Committee of Architecture and Town Planning of Taganrog, at a meeting of the Standing Committee of the City Council of Taganrog on Budget, Taxes and Economic Policy the deputies were presented with the initiative of the chief architect of Taganrog Olga Shcherbakova to place the "City of Military Glory" on Petrovskaya Street, in front of the Administration of Taganrog.[1][2]

In February 2014 it was announced that the City Planning Council and the chief architect Olga Shcherbakova made a preliminary decision to place the stele near the City Hall.[3] In this regard, the fate of the bust of Vladimir Lenin remained in question.[4][2][3]

In August 2014 the citizens of Taganrozhsk were astonished by the method that the city administration used to repair the cladding of the bust pedestal. The granite slabs on the pedestal were fixed with clerical tape.[4][5]
