The history of the design of the Elektrozavodskaya station is connected with the history of the design of the Pokrovsky radius of the Moscow Metro, which was supposed to begin near the Lenin Library and end in Izmailovo. The first project of the Pokrovsky radius appeared in the year. After the Kursky Station, it was planned to build the following stations: Gorokhovskaya Street, Baumanskaya Square, Spartakovskaya Square, Perevedenovsky Lane, Elektrozavodskaya, Semyonovskaya Square, Mironovskaya Street and Stadium. In December 1934, the Gorokhovskaya Street station was canceled, and in March - April 1935, Perevedenovsky Lane was renamed Bakuninskaya Street. In the master plan for the reconstruction of Moscow of the year, the Spartakovskaya Ploshchad and Mironovskaya Street stations were excluded. Finally, in July 1937, on the section “Kursky Station” - “Electrozavod” the route was straightened, and instead of four stations there was only one station “Spartakovskaya”, which was located approximately in the same place where it was designed in 1935.
Construction of the third stage lines began in 1938. The design of Elektrozavodskaya in 1939 was ordered to the architects V. A. Shchuko and V. G. Gelfreich, who involved their student I. V. Rozhin in the work. V. A. Shchuko's participation in the project was interrupted in the same year due to his death. At the Izmailovsky radius at the beginning of 1941, the tunnel was 70% ready. After the start of the Great Patriotic War, construction was frozen, and the buildings were used as shelters. On January 18, 1944, the Kurskaya - Izmailovskaya section was opened without the Elektrozavodskaya station. It was opened on May 15 of the same year, becoming the 29th station of the Moscow Metro.
In 1989, it was planned to build a second exit of the station and open it the following year, 1990. The main goal of this plan was to repair the escalators without closing the station. However, construction had to be abandoned due to economic difficulties that began in the country.
Architecture and decoration
Lobby
On the walls of the ticket office and escalator halls, lined with red Saleti marble, there are medallions with portraits of the founders of electrical engineering: M. V. Lomonosov, P. N. Yablochkov, A. S. Popov, M. Faraday, B. Franklin, W. Gilbert .
The architects of the lobby are V. G. Gelfreich, I. E. Rozhin, A. E. Arkin.
The station was closed for reconstruction on May 19, 2007 due to the need to replace escalators, the technical life of which had come to an end. In 2007-2008, the escalator slope was completely reconstructed and new E55T escalators were installed. The facade of the lobby was also updated, new doors were installed, bronze openwork grilles were restored, and the granite floor covering was replaced with marble.
Station halls
The pylons are lined with light Prokhoro-Balandinsky marble and decorated with architectural details (carved triglyphs with triangular grooves, lattice niches, marble cornice and bas-reliefs). Benches are installed at each pylon on the side of the central hall. The floor was originally laid out with black and gray slabs, and the edges were decorated with ornaments made of pink and yellow Crimean marble Biyuk-Yanka. During the reconstruction, the floor covering was replaced with light gray Yantsevsky granite and labradorite. The track walls are lined with red Georgian Saleti marble. It contains quite a lot of shells of cephalopods - nautiluses and ammonites, and occasionally belemnite rostra.
Bas-reliefs from Prokhoro-Balandinsky marble on the pylons of the central hall are dedicated to the theme of labor (sculptor G. I. Motovilov). It depicts workers of the Electric Plant, builders, blacksmiths, representatives of agriculture, etc. Now there are 12 bas-reliefs at the station; two were dismantled during the refurbishment of the central hall. In the station project of the late 1930s, it was planned to make recesses in the pylons in which busts of Stakhanovite heroes were going to be placed, but when compiling a list of workers for the image, the names had to be constantly changed, since each plant wanted to immortalize its employee. As a result, this idea was abandoned.
On the vault of the central hall, 318 original lamps are located in round recesses in 6 rows. The emphasis on lighting is made in connection with the location near the Electrozavod and the name of the station. Initially, it was planned to make the vault ornamental, like on Novokuznetskaya, but then, at the suggestion of V.A. Shchuko, it was decided to make spherical caissons with a lamp in each of them.
The end of the station is decorated with a bas-relief depicting banners, in the center of which there was a medallion with Stalin’s profile. Stalin's profile was removed after the "cult of personality" was debunked.
Upon completion of the overhaul on November 28, the design of the station underwent some changes. In particular, light stripes appeared in the floor along the edges of the platform - the same as at the Trubnaya, Sretensky Boulevard, Strogino, Kuntsevskaya and Slavyansky Boulevard stations. In addition, the floors themselves were lined with granite instead of marble, preserving the original colors and patterns. Incandescent lamps have been replaced by compact fluorescent (energy-saving) lamps.

Elektrozavodskaya station
The station was opened to passengers on May 15, 1944 as part of the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya metro line. During its existence, the name has not changed.
The name is given after the Elektrozavod, which is currently a complex of three plants (Elektrozavod itself, MELZ and ATE-1). Nearby is the Elektrozavodskaya platform of the Kazan direction of the Moscow Railway.
The pylons are lined with Prokhoro-Balandinsky marble. The floor was originally laid out with black and gray slabs, and the edges were decorated with an ornament of pink and yellow Crimean marble “biyuk-yankoy”. The track walls are lined with red Georgian “salieti” marble, probably of Lower Jurassic age. It contains quite a lot of shells of cephalopods - nautiluses and ammonites, and occasionally belemnite rostra. The bas-reliefs on the walls of the central hall are dedicated to the theme of labor (sculptor G. I. Motovilov). On the vault of the central hall, 318 original lamps are located in round recesses in 6 rows. The ground lobby is made in the form of a hexagonal building with a dome. At the entrance there is a sculptural group “Metrobuilders” (sculptor M. G. Manizer). On the walls of the ticket office and escalator halls, lined with red marble, there are medallions with portraits of the founders of electrical engineering: M.V. Lomonosov, P.N. Yablochkov, A.S. Popov, M. Faraday, B. Franklin, W. Gilbert.
Upon completion of the overhaul, by November 28, 2008, the design of the station underwent some changes. In particular, light stripes appeared in the floor along the edges of the platform - the same as at the Trubnaya, Sretensky Boulevard, Strogino, Kuntsevskaya and Slavyansky Boulevard stations.
