  1. Is it the place, where the plot of "Master and Margaret" starts?

  2. Yes, only there's never been a streetcar route here and no streetcar tracks to pour oil on! At Chistiye Prudy (the Clean Ponds), though, there still are - but that's the other end of the city center!

    Here's a nice resource on Master and Margarita, and, among other things, they do have a map, a note and a couple pictures of the Patriarch's Ponds - here.
