Sukharevskaya (Russian: Сухаревская) is a station on the Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya Line of the Moscow Metro. It opened on December 31, 1971. The yellowish marble pylons resemble stylized sheaves of wheat in keeping with the station's original name, Kolkhoznaya or "Collective Farm." The walls are faced with white marble and decorated with plaques by R.I. Pogrebnoy (who was also the architect), Ye.P. Kolyupanova, and S.T. Kolyupanov. Lighting comes from rows of inset lamps running along the base of the ceiling.
The station's underground vestibule is located under Sretenka Ulitsa just south of the Sadovoye Koltso.
