The buildings themselves are located on the odd side, and the Moscow River is on the even side. On Derbenevskaya embankment, the index is 115114.

Origin of the name

The embankment got its name from the name of the nearest street in the 19th century. And in the XIV century in these places there was a tract Derbenevka.

There are two versions of the origin of the word "derba" or "derbina":

• overgrown arable land, with the top layer removed;
• a meadow depression that is overgrown with bushes or trees.

And the third version, perhaps the most plausible, is that this term meant "wilds", which is typical for any tract.
