Prospect Beresteiskyi (Ukrainian: Проспект Берестейський, pronounced [proˈspɛkt bereˈstɛjsʲkɪj], lit.'Brest Avenue') is the second longest public roadway (prospekt) in Kyiv, Ukraine. The roadway was created in the second half of the 20th century (1964) as part of the urbanized area of the Brest-Lytovske highway and was known as Brest-Lytovskyi prospect (Ukrainian: Брест-Литовський проспект, romanized: Brest-Lytovskyi prospekt, lit.'Brest-Litovsky Avenue'). At the beginning of the Soviet perestroika period in 1985, it was renamed to Prospect Peremohy (Ukrainian: Проспект Перемоги), for the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War. It gained its current name in February 2023.
