prime-ministers etc.
The southern border of the neighborhood is considered Hostomelske Highway, the eastern – Minskyi Avenue, the western – the road to the village of Moshchun, Bucha Raion (Kyiv Oblast). The area stretches north to the village of Demydiv, Vyshhorod Raion (Kyiv Oblast). The name was combined from two Slavic words, pushcha (пуща), which stands for a dense forest, and Vodytsia (Водиця), the name of a nearby river (not existing).
In 1724 by the orders of Peter I here was established a forestry. Until the end of the 18th century the area was contested between the Mezhyhirya Monastery and Brotherhood Monastery. In 1793 the argument was decided by the Senate transferring the neighborhood into the possession of the Kyiv city as a cottage settlement Pushcha-Vodytsia, which soon turned into a small khutor.
In 1899, a dacha- or cottage-type settlement was founded in the Pushcha-Vodytsia forests. Later on, Soviet sanatoriums were located in the settlement, as well as in other settlements nearby. In 1981, the village acquired the status of an urban-type settlement, subordinate to the Podilskyi Raion (district) of Kyiv, later in 2002 the area was passed to the Obolon Raion, and settlement lost its separate administration.
