It was founded in 1960 when a trend of building satellite cities started.[2] Designed by architects from Leningrad, the city was initially called Sputnik (Russian: Спутник).[2] Starting from relatively undeveloped land, the city grew to absorbed surrounding villages, such as Yelnikovo [ru], Urakovo [ru], Yandashevo [ru], Anatkasy [ru], and Tsygankasy [ru].[2] The first foundation was laid by a team of concrete workers on November 18, 1960.[2] The first street in the city was opened on July 12, 1962, which included a school, a club, a library, a bathhouse, a restaurant, a market, and a transportation center.[2]On
On August 11, 1965, the government of the Chuvash ASSR adopted a resolution giving administrative status to the city, now known as Novocheboksarsk.[2] The resolution resulted in the city administratively absorbing the nearby villages of Bannovo [ru], Ivanovo [ru], Oldeyevo [ru], Tenekassy [ru], Chyodino [ru], and Yandashevo.[2]
On December 27, 1971 the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR issued the Decree "On Granting the City of Novocheboksarsk of the Chuvash ASSR the Status of a City Under Republic Jurisdiction", giving Novocheboksarsk city status.[2]
