In December 1905 in areas Sormovo Kanavino and there was an uprising of workers Sormovskogo plant.
During the First World War, Nizhny Novgorod was filled with refugees from the west of the empire.

==The Soviet period==


Map of Nizhny Novgorod and its environs in 1929
Fall of 1917 in the city of Soviet power. During the period of the NEP briefly revived Nizhny Novgorod. However, with the beginning of industrialization in the 1930 Fair was closed as a "hostile social phenomenon."
In 1929 Sormovo and Kanavino were abolished, their territory together with other settlements (villages Gordeevka, Karpivka, Vysokovo, villages Vysokovo, Koposova, Fixes, Burnakovka, Knyazhiha, Ratmaniha, Kostarikha, Molitovka, Borzovka, Monastyrka, etc.) were included in the the Greater Nizhny Novgorod, which has since become divided into districts. In the same year, Nizhny Novgorod province was abolished and became a center of Nizhny Novgorod region. October 7, 1932 the city was renamed Gorky.
Thirties of the XX century - a time of rapid growth of the industry in Nizhny Novgorod - Gorky.

==The memorial "Gorky - front" in Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin==

In Soviet times, the industry is rapidly developing and expanding the boundaries of the city along the river. During the Great Patriotic War is the title of the Guards 137th Division Gorky formation, and industrial companies are the main suppliers for the front: only at the Nizhny Novgorod engineering plant produced as much artillery and more on all enterprises in Germany. By virtue of its defense-industrial value city was bombed by German aircraft - during the war, enemy bombers flew 43 raid on Gorky, 26 of them strikes at night.
In Soviet times, laid the foundations of modern transport and infrastructure problems of the city. Populous "sleeping quarters" were built in the lower part of the city near the plants, which in the ground and worked their residents. Then it is not supposed to be the daily movement of the working population in other parts of the city or on the other side of the Oka River. Bitter 1930 - 1950 was a direct city and several factories with workers towns and villages around them, separated by vacant lots, which by the end of the XX century were already lined with high-rise residential blocks. At the turn of XX-XXI centuries the flaws of such a scheme: a significant number of the population of residential areas the lower part of the city began to work and study in the mountainous part, and vice versa, resulting in four of the bridge across the Oka River, three of which were built during the Soviet period, still remain small places the transport system of the city.
By virtue of being in Gorky defense plants since 1959, he became a "closed city", and this subsequently led to a low influx of tourists to the city (including foreign) and the weak development of Gorky airport.
October 22, 1990 the city was returned to the name of Nizhny Novgorod.

==The present stage==

Since the 1990s, was the site of Lower specialized international forums and exhibitions based on the newly created society "Nizhny Novgorod Fair." In 2000, with the formation of the Volga Federal District, the city became the center of it.
Downtown consists of the historic center, despite the fact that the narrow streets become an obstacle to this. In the early 2000s, the historic center begins actively to be built high-rise residential and office buildings, often made "infill development", which constantly attracts the attention of the public. Arson old wooden buildings are also a problem downtown. Some construction projects started before the crisis of 2008-2009, are now frozen, resulting in the very center of Nizhny Novgorod found a lot of unfinished retail and office buildings.
In 2010, the city government with the participation of the public has been approved by the new master plan development. Draft plan of the center of Nizhny was designed "NO PI and the General Plan of Moscow." The new concept of development involves the transfer of business from an overloaded historic center of the city beyond the river (such transfer envisaged by Soviet general plans of the 1980s), the development of the underground, light rail and expansion of the urban area.
