Intersection of Karl Libknekht and Mashinostroiteley — the center of urban life

Karl Libknekht Street is one of the main thoroughfares of Verkhnyaya Tura. Previously, it was called "Odnostoronek above Proyezhaya," and during the pre-revolutionary period, merchant houses were located here. On the street, house No. 151, owned by the brothers Ivan and Ilya Yefimovich Selivanov — second-guild merchants who traded in textile goods — has been preserved. Also on the street is a fire station with a five-story watchtower — a notable landmark of the area.

Mashinostroiteley Street is no less significant an artery of the town. Previously, it was called Seredinnaya (or Seryodnaya), and later bore the name of A.S. Pushkin. Today, this street is the axis of public life in Verkhnyaya Tura. Here is a memorial dedicated to the events of the Great Patriotic War, opened on August 26, 1984. The names of the fallen residents of Verkhnyaya Tura are carved on 37 slabs. In recent years, public art created by the team of the agency "Drugie Izmereniya" and local residents has appeared on the street for the "Synergy Fest" festival.
