Serzha Lyfaria is located in between the Maryny Tsvetaievoi and Teodora Draizera stations. Initially named in honor of Alexander Saburov, a Soviet partisan, it was renamed in 2019 in honor of Serge Lifar, a French ballet dancer and choreographer of Ukrainian origin.
At one point the Kyiv City authorities proposed creating the Vulytsia Saburova station [uk] of the Kyiv Metro's Livoberezhna Line, although that entire project was scrapped in favor of expanding the existing light rail system.[3]
