This station was chosen because it is the least busy in the city.

It was not fully closed, but the show area was partitioned off. However, subway passengers could see the models passing by.

The interior of the station matches its name: the station walls are decorated with panels depicting Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky and characters from his novels and stories.
