Abstract
The paper studies the data of a comprehensive environmental survey of land plots in several streets (i. e. Basseynaya, Lieutenant Katina and Sportivnaya) of the city of Kaliningrad for their compliance with the requirements for a specially protected natural area of local importance. It is shown that the territory of the indicated forest park zone meets the main criteria for designating a specially protected natural area of local importance. Given the urban environment, the territory has a high level of biological diversity, including regionally rare species; within the boundaries of the study area there are unique natural complexes and objects. This is a promising territory to carry out scientific research, environmental educational activities, ecological touristic activities, and regulated recreation.
