Историческая справка

Development of Petrovsky Island began in the 19th century. Brothers Ivan and Nikolay Zhdanov were among the first to receive land plots there and built a chemical and apothecary factory which produced laundry blue, wood vinegar and birch tar oil. The Zhdanovka River got its name after the surname of these factory owners. Wooden bridges over the Zhdanovka existed since 1817. Old Petrovsky Bridge (Stary Petrovsky most) connected Petrovsky Island with Petrovsky Pereulok. In 1836 it was moved upstream. The bridge bore the names of Kadetsky and 3rd Zhdanovsky. Nowadays it is called Most Krasnogo Kursanta (Red Cadet Bridge). In the 1830’s the wooden 1st Zhdanovsky Bridge connected the dam of Tuchkov Bridge with Petrovsky Park. That bridge was dismantled by 1957. In 1939 Petrovsky and Petrogradsky islands were connected by the wooden five-span 2nd Zhdanovsky Bridge. After 1st Zhdanovsky Bridge was dismantled, the number disappeared from the name of 2nd Zhdanovsky Bridge. In 1983-1984 4th Zhdanovsky Bridge was erected at the point where once was the wooden Petrovsky Bridge, at the section line of Petrovsky Pereulok.
