The Shevchenkivskyi District (Ukrainian: Шевченківський район, Shevchenkivsʹkyi raion) is one of seven administrative urban districts (raions) of the city of Zaporizhzhia, located in southern Ukraine.[1][2] Its population was 157,000 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census.[3]

Geography

The largest of Zaporizhzhia's seven urban districts, the district has an area of 98.0 square kilometres (37.8 sq mi), making up approximately 29.3% of the total administrative area of Zaporizhzhia. The district is located fully on the left (east) side of the Dnieper river.[2]

History

The district was founded in 1962 by separating it from Zhovtnevyi District[2] (since 2016 Oleksandrivskyi District). Following the passage of decommunization laws, in 2016, numerous streets within the district were renamed to replace their Soviet-era names. Some of the new street names include Sikorskyi St., Mykola Kytsenko St., Leonid Prynia St., Maksym Kryvonos St., Bohdan Zavada St., Malv St., and Vasyl Didenko St..[4]
