Oleksandry Ekster

Oleksandry Ekster (Ukrainian: ; from 2000 to 2008, Tsvietaievoi; from 2008 to 2023, Maryny Tsvietaievoi) is a station on the Livoberezhna Line of the Kyiv Light Rail system in Ukraine. It was opened on May 26, 2000, and reopened after a significant modernization of the line on October 26, 2012. Oleksandry Ekster is located between the Myloslavska and Serzha Lyfaria stations. Initially named in honour of Marina Tsvetaeva, a Russian poet, but it was renamed in 2023 in honour of Aleksandra Ekster, painter and designer of the Ukrainian avant-garde. At one point the Kyiv City authorities proposed connecting the station with a prospective station of the Kyiv Metro's Livoberezhna Line, although that entire project was scrapped in favor of expanding the existing light rail system.
