Techet reka Moika... Ot Nevskogo pr. do Kalinkina - Zuev G.I.

The book is a continuation of the history of the construction of the banks of moka. The first study, published earlier, included the territory of the river from its source to the Green Bridge. Today we will talk about the development of the left bank of the reservoir since the founding of St. Petersburg. Houses located downstream along the left bank of the former Mya River, erected by remarkable architects of Russia, on the stretch from the Green Bridge to the mouth of the oldest reservoir of St. Petersburg, will help to recall little-known information from the unusual biographies of their owners and builders, unexpected "views" of their lives on the Moia, and sometimes far from it, about the previous dramas and tragedies ... The author hopes that familiarity with his new book about Moyka will allow readers to see how its embankments were settled, to get acquainted with the names of various people who were homeowners here. You will learn the names of famous or half-forgotten architects of St. Petersburg, who designed palaces and houses here. In the text, the multifaceted image of the embankments of the Moika River, its buildings, bridges and adjacent highways is supplemented by rare historical illustrations from the 18th and 19th centuries and photographic materials from today.
