On October 10, 2011, the building of the Lomonosov House Science and Educational Centre was opened on Popov Street after a two-year reconstruction effort.

A project to improve the adjacent territory near the Northern Dvina embankment was drafted on the initiative of Arkhangelsk Mayor Viktor Pavlenko.

Under this project, a monumental art masterpiece, namely, a stele/obelisk with a bas-relief of Mikhail Lomonosov, was delivered and installed in commemoration of his 300th birthday. ROSKAMSERVICE PLC was the project contractor.

Under a municipal contract to improve the territory of the Oktyabrsky area, colour cobblestones, fences and decorative lighting were installed. Severnaya Roza (Northern Rose) Ltd. was the project contractor.

The stele/obelisk was built and the adjacent territory improved by October 10, 2011.
