1997–2001: Dorogomilovo, Fili-Davydkovo, Mozhaysky The district continued to cover parts of Western Moscow along the Kutuzovsky Prospekt, gaining the rest of Dorogomilovo (former Dorogomilovsky District) from District 30.
2001–2005: Dorogomilovo, Fili-Davydkovo, Ramenki, TEOS MGU The district changed significantly as it swapped Mozhaysky District in the west for Ramenki to its south with the neighbouring District 30.
2005–2014: constituency abolished Prior to the 2005 election the number of constituencies was reduced to 15, so the district was eliminated.
2014–2024: Chertanovo Severnoye, Nagorny, parts of Zyuzino The district was created prior to the 2014 election, after Moscow City Duma had been expanded from 35 to 45 seats. It covers parts of Southern Moscow as well as parts of Zyuzino in South-Western Moscow.
