The station's name comes from the area of Khoroshyovo, which was supposedly named by Ivan the Terrible.[4]

Infrastructure

Khoroshyovskaya has a direct connection to Polezhayevskaya on the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya line and an out-of-station transfer to Khoroshyovo on the Moscow Central Circle. Upon completion of Ulitsa Narodnogo Opolcheniya station, the line will have two branches from Khoroshyovskaya, one that continues along the planned circle, and one that will terminate at Delovoy Tsentr. The latter branch may ultimately become part of the planned Rublyovo-Arkhangelskaya line.[5]
