Thank you Tatyana. Of course, baton vs. bulka and pod'ezd vs. paradnoe. How could I forget!

Regards,

Yevgeny

Hello,
Generally, people say it's bordiur in Moscow, hence the joke which I encountered several times:
Gde-to v raione Bologogo est' mesto, gde bordiur plavno perekhodit v porebrik.
Other examples:
Bulka in St. Petersburg and baton in Moscow (baton belogo). Paradnoe in SPb, pod'ezd in Moscow.
Regards,
Tatyana
