Webcam 1st Yamskogo Polya — Live Broadcast in Real Time
Cityscape from 1st Yamskogo Polya Street
This webcam offers a view of one of the rapidly developing areas in Moscow's Northern Administrative District. The live stream captures the intersection of urban architecture and the historical heritage of the Yamskoye Pole district. The frame simultaneously features modern glass facades, an Orthodox church with a golden dome, and an active construction site — a typical scene for a Moscow webcam online, documenting the transformation of the urban environment.
The Yamskoye Pole district got its word "yamskoye" from the word "yama," which in pre-revolutionary Russia referred to stations for coachmen. The memory of the yamskaya sloboda is preserved in 1st, 3rd, and 5th Yamskogo Polya Streets. Until 1934, present-day Pravda Street was called 2nd Yamskogo Polya Street, which confirms the scale of the historical territory.
BELL Business Center — Architectural Dominant
In the foreground of the broadcast rises a modern business complex that shapes the new look of the street. The BELL Business Center is three 20-story Class A towers over 50 meters high with distinctive horizontal glazing. The total area of the business complex is 88 thousand square meters, including an underground parking garage with 239 spaces.
The glass facades reflect the ever-changing Moscow sky, creating an effect of constant movement even in a static image. This is one of those projects that transforms the perception of the district — from an industrial past to an office present.
Church of Demetrius of Thessaloniki — Spiritual Landmark
In the left part of the frame, a white Orthodox church with a golden dome and cross is visible — the Church of Demetrius of Thessaloniki. It was founded on September 1, 1914 at 5th Yamskogo Polya Street, 19-21 (formerly Morcovkin Lane). The church survived the revolution, the Soviet era, and was returned to the faithful, remaining a spiritual center for the residents of Yamskoye Pole.
Earlier, in the Tverskaya-Yamskaya Sloboda, there was another church — the Church of Basil of Caesarea, located in the eastern part of building 19/21 on 5th Yamskogo Polya Street, but it has not survived to the present day.
Active Construction: What's Being Built at the Site
The central element of the broadcast is a large construction site with earthworks and an excavator. This is no random object: on 1st Yamskogo Polya Street, the Stone Belorusskaya Business Center (Plot 30) is being built with a view onto Belorusskaya Street. The project will add another major office complex to the district.
Nearby, on the site of the former car repair workshops of the Moscow-Brest Railway, the GloraX Premium Belorusskaya residential complex of premium class is under construction (1st Yamskogo Polya St., bldg. 2). Such proximity of office and residential projects is characteristic of modern Moscow — the creation of mixed-use districts where everything you need is within walking distance.
How to Get to 1st Yamskogo Polya Street
For those who want to see the location in person, the nearest metro station is Belorusskaya. The walk from it takes 7–8 minutes on foot. The street is located in the Begovoy district of the Northern Administrative District, not far from Leningradsky Prospekt and Belorussky Railway Station.
Landmarks include the BELL Business Center with its distinctive glass towers and the white church with a golden dome. The most convenient approach is from Belorusskaya Street — Yamskogo Polya Street crosses it almost perpendicularly.
Transport Infrastructure of the District
In the lower part of the frame, metal railway structures are visible — trusses that recall the territory's past. The tracks of the Moscow-Brest Railway ran here, and car repair workshops operated. Today this function has given way to commercial and residential development, but the railway heritage is still readable in the landscape.
Vehicle traffic on the street is active — it is a transit artery connecting the city center with the northern districts. During peak hours, heavy traffic can be observed; in the evening, congestion is lighter.
What's Visible on the Camera
The online camera on 1st Yamskogo Polya Street broadcasts a panoramic city view. The frame simultaneously features:
A construction site with an excavator and temporary metal fencing — earthworks are underway for new projects. The modern glass BELL Business Center with horizontal facade glazing. The white Orthodox Church of Demetrius of Thessaloniki with a golden dome and cross. Metal railway structures in the lower part of the frame. A multi-story building with a shopping center sign on the right side. City streets with vehicle traffic, trees, and urban development.
The webcam operates in real time, allowing you to observe how the face of Moscow is changing — from the historic Yamskoye Pole to a modern business district.
