Сквер Мациевича, Garden square in Primorsky District, Saint Petersburg, Russia
The Matsievich Square spans 1.67 hectares between buildings 11 and 13 on Aerodromnaya Street and building 6 on Bogatyrsky Prospekt.
The square occupies the site of the Russian Empire's first official airport, where aviator Captain Lev Makarovich Matsievich lost his life in the early 1900s.
The central area features a granite monument and busts of Russian pilots and aircraft designers, preserving the memory of national aviation pioneers.
Located near Pionerskaya metro station, the square includes children's playgrounds, walking paths, and benches for recreational activities throughout the day.
Local residents successfully protected the square from development threats in 2003 through petitions and rallies, leading to its renovation in 2004.
