Hello, dear travelers! Vasilyevsky Island is the heart of St. Petersburg, the largest of the city islands. His streets are impregnated by the history of the Russian state. And Peter I planned to turn it into Russian Venice, but these plans were not implemented. What to look at Vasilyevsky Island when you arrive in Petersburg?
On the streets of Vasilyevsky Island, as anywhere else in St. Petersburg, the atmosphere of the XVIII-XIX centuries is felt. Some houses look as well as a hundred years ago, so it seems to be there, you seem to fall into the last century.
Neither the country, nor the weather, I do not want to choose. I will come to Vasilyevsky Island. Your facade of dark blue I will not find a dark blue, between the faded lines on the asphalt fall, - Joseph Brodsky
In the summer, thousands of tourists come to look at the main event of the city - the divorce of the palace bridge connecting Vasilyevsky Island with Nevsky Prospect.
But the locals are not delighted with the fact that you can only get home at night or waiting for the information of the bridges. Recently, they launched the metro night line, which delivers residents from one shore to another during the breeding period.
The weather in Vasilyevsky island is different from St. Petersburg - here is almost always colder and windy, so it will not be superfluous to take warm things for a walk.
History of development
The story of Vasilyevsky Island takes the beginning of the 18th century, when Peter I presented him with A. D. Menshikov. He also built a palace on him, the primordial view of which was preserved to this day. In 1732 he was submitted to the first cadet corps. And since 1981, the Hermitage branch and the exposition of the time of Peter I were settled here.
Actively build up Vasilyevsky Island began when Peter I wasveling to build something akin to the cities of Europe.
In 1720, a project with parallel streets-channels, in the spirit of Venice, was presented with the Architect of Trezini. The idea was accepted, but without canals, and the streets were renamed in the line.
By 1810, the Arrow of Vasilyevsky Island was built on the eastern part. A little later moved the port. Equipped space under the cemetery. Announced the Blagoveshchensky Bridge. Opened educational and scientific institutions. Staves to actively build up residential and public buildings. In the north and south of the island, industrial enterprises earned. Passed the first tram line.
In 20-21 centuries, by merging with the neighboring Island of the Decembrists, Vasileostrovsky district appeared. A large prospectus was reconstructed. Masters were formed. Actively built up: the area of \u200b\u200bthe harbor, the Western side, which is the marine facade of St. Petersburg.
In the mouth of the r. Smolenki, after the construction of the bridge of shipbuilders, was planned to break the park, called the "Window to Europe", however, due to the restructuring, the project had to be collapsed. According to the latest information, the project "Window to Europe" Park on Vasilyevsky Island can see the light.

Former Zhdanovsky, and now - Primorsky District is one of the fastest growing in the northern capital. This is a huge territory with more than half a million inhabitants, very promising, heterogeneous and, without a doubt, which deserves attention.
Primorsky district today is modern new buildings, promising enterprises and good transport junctions, one of the most sought-after areas in the real estate market of St. Petersburg. We will tell you more about the place where Dantes shot the "Sun of Russian Poetry", where the commandants of the Peter and Paul Fortress were lived, the aristocrats of the Tsarist Russia were built and the first Soviet missiles were tested in Soviet times.
Metro Station "Commendant Avenue"
In its borders, the Primorsky district is located since the 90s of the last century. This is a huge area of \u200b\u200balmost 110 square kilometers. The area was initially formed as a residential array capable of accommodating a significant part of the second largest and magnitude of the city of Russia.
The areas gradually entered into the Primorsky District, were known even before the King Peter I decided that "there will be a city here." Olgino, Lakhta, Lisys Nose, Old and New Village - All these were Finnish settlements on the banks of the Neva River, subsequently those who are close to the owls close to the emperor and officials. There is a permanent residence of the commandant of the Petropavlovsk Fortress, which was at the time with a stronghold of the safety of the young capital. The estates of the reversing-ryumine, charts of eagle and other high-ranking aristocrats of the tsarist era were constructed. Gradually, Petersburg grew, the picturesque places of the north-western surroundings were attracted here of wealthy dacifices: by the end of the 19th century, the territory of the future of Primorsky (at the Soviets - Zhdanovsky) district is almost completely built of country estates and summer houses.
The October 1917 Revolution made its own adjustments: the district gradually began to turn into a strategic object. Organized at the beginning of the 20th century, the commandant airfield - "The first runway of Russia" - acquired a new meaning: here the first Russian aircraft, aircraft, and, subsequently, and cosmic missiles were tested.
In the Great Patriotic War, it was with the help of a commandant airfield that the air traffic was able to establish an air service with a blockade Leningrad: pilots were able to deliver some foods and take away from the territory of the city of wounded and subject to evacuation. It is with the location of the Commandant airfield and its meaning for Russian aviation, the names of the streets in the Primorsky district are related: parachute, planer, aircraft designers, testes, and so on. Currently, the Commandant airfield does not exist, its territory is "under" residential arrays of the same name of the Municipal District of St. Petersburg.
Today, there are several major prospectuses on the territory of the Primorsky district: Primorskoye Highway (turning into the federal "Scandinavian Federal District" leading from St. Petersburg to Finland), Prospect Testers, Bogatyr Avenue, Commandant Prospect and others, four metro stations: "Black River" , "Pioneer" ("Blue" Branch), "Old Village" and "Commandant Prospect" ("Brown" Branch). Residents of the district can also use the "specific" and "lakes", located in the election area, and metro stations located in the territory of Petrogradka.
There is also a railway message: through the Primorsky district, there are ways for Sestroretsky and the selection railway directions - this is the stations "Yachtny", "Old Village", "Lakhta", "Lysiy Nose", "New Village" and "Olginino".
However, a standard problem for St. Petersburg - traffic jams and a very dense car traffic - did not pass the Primorsky district: at the peak hours, in the summer season, on weekends and holidays during the mass departure or entry into the city here can be quite long. The newly built ring road and many car junctions, of course, were facilitated, but did not solve this problem dramatically. On the this moment The hopes of drivers and officials of the city administration are entrusted to the Western high-speed diameter, however, according to experts, and this modern highway will not be able to completely "unload" Peter crashed.
Primorsky district is currently, as mentioned above, is one of the most promising and attractive areas in the city. Yes, there are several depressive neighborhoods here: for example, "old" dull new buildings in the "Pionerskaya" area and the terrain of black river and the Nevsky Lips are contaminated with the industries, but in general, the district produces a pleasant impression: new homes, clean courtyards, wide avenues, Many opportunities for shopping and entertainment.
Real estate here Very different: there are attractive "German cottages", currently tunable, reconstructed and in demand for lovers of low-rise buildings "With a history", there are Stalinkins, Khrushchev, at home 137th, 528th, 611th and other popular Series, modern residential complexes, Townhouses in Lakhte, Olginino and Foxed. As they say, you can choose exactly what you taste would be money: prices in the Primorsky district are higher than prices for similar real estate in the southern regions of the city.
The standard housing and utilities package costs residents of the district about 2000-2200 rubles per month, it all depends on what class your home and how much water and electricity you consume.
Ecology of the Area
Despite the huge territories of the Black Troops, Primorsky District is considered one of the most environmentally friendly in the city. A large number of green plantings - about a quarter of the entire area of \u200b\u200bthe district - help to cope with the bodies and the consequences of harmful emissions into the atmosphere. It favors the wind rose, which helps bring clean air from the shores of the Gulf of Finland and from the resort area to the Primorsky District.
The radiation background, as a whole, is normal, only in the area of \u200b\u200bthe Commandant Prospectus and the street of the aircraft designers, the norm is exceeded by 3-7 microentergen \\ hour. The fact that radioactive burials were located in Soviet times. In general, the territory of the Commandant airfield is rather contaminated: heavy metals and harmful chemical compounds are present in the soil and groundwater.
The region of the black river is also contaminated - the proximity of industrial enterprises affects. Especially dangerous from this point of view is the place where the black river flows into the big sky. Not far from Queen Avenue is a huge transshipment of household garbage, in fact, the landfill, damage the atmosphere, soil and the appearance of the area. Periodically, officials make proposals for the redeployment of this transshipment and cleaning the territory, but there were no specific actions yet.
In the area of \u200b\u200blarge motorways of the area: Primorsky highway, tests of testes and aircraft designers, the Bogatyr, Commandant and Primorsky Avenue, as well as Savushkin Streets, there is a standard gas and higher level of noise.
Population of the Area
In the Primorsky district, according to data posted on the official website of the administration of this administrative education, about 540 thousand people. This is one of the youngest, rapid and developing areas of St. Petersburg.
According to tradition, housing in the northern regions of the city is in great demand, rather than in the south. Here you are more accustomed to buy apartments, and, therefore, the area is more actively being built. Some decline during and immediately after the crisis of the end of zero years did not greatly affected the development of the real estate market: in Primorsky district, housing is presented for every taste and wallet, from the prestigious and elite business class to the apartments of Comfort and Economy. Thanks to this diversity, the desire of developers to please each client, good location and ecology, developed infrastructure and transport junction, the population of the Primorsky district is constantly growing.
Here you buy housing and residents of the Northern Capital: young families who have decided to start an independent life. Social composition is very divergent and "bring it in a common denominator" is unlikely perhaps. Many mortgage programs make it possible to purchase an apartment in installments or credit, and the area is rapidly youth - the workable population here is more than half of the entire number of residents.
Municipal division and real estate
Primorsky district includes 8 municipal districts: this is Lisys Nose, Juntolovo, Lake Long, Black River, Lakhta-Olginino, Commandant Airfield, Colomagi and Municipal District No. 65.
this is a small coastal settlement included in the city trait. According to the census of the population for the 2010th year, about 5 thousand people live here. The story of the foot of the nose leaves its roots deep into Dopurerovsky times: the mention of it is found in the annals for another 1500 year. This is an independent municipality, bordering the surroundings of Sestroretsk (Aleksandrovskaya and Gorskaya). For a long time, the lisus nose "was" the Leningrad region, then was joined to the resort area and only in the second half of the 90s of the last century he went to Primorsky.
In the fierce nose today is the active construction of suburban real estate. Small cottages and gardening are inferior to a luxurious cottage and villas. This is a picturesque place with good transport accessibility: in the village you can get both by rail (station "Lysiy nose") and on the modern automotive highway M10 \\ E18. If the cork was not familiar to these places, the road in fox would occupy no more than 30-40 minutes. The land is dear here, the place is considered prestigious. Cottages can be found from 200 to 500 thousand dollars.
JUntsolovo - this is the former Municipal District number 69, in which, according to the 2010 census, more than 100 people live. Residents of the district can use the metro stations "Ozerki" and "Old Village", but to any of them you need to get by public transport. The borders of the district are held along the Kamenka River and Lakhtinsky spill, on the territory of the agricultural enterprise "suburban", according to Shuvalovsky Avenue, then at the local railway branch to the industrial zone "Ekoazservis" and at its perimeter - in the southern bank of the pond, on the borders of the Promon "Radar" and "Vikar - We ", according to Novoselkovskaya, sinking and parachuting street, then for a long-term and planernaya, on it - on the reed street and the Glutchaka River, along the river - to the Lakhta spill and the river Kamenka.
Despite the abundance of a bedside down, it is a beautiful area with a lot of green plantings - it is located on the territory of this municipal district that the Juntolian reserve is located, one of the few natural reserves located directly in the territory of the urbanized development in St. Petersburg.
Not too convenient transport accessibility is compensated by parks, squares, and in some quarters and at all the feeling of country life. The property here is built in different ways: from "high-rise buildings" by the class of economy to comfortable low-rise residential complexes. There are more depressive quarters of the "old" new buildings of the last century. Prices fluctuate from 2000-20 dollars per square meter in standard secondary housing apartments to $ 3500-3800 per square meter in modern residential complexes.

Once it was unfavorable, from an ecological point of view, the place, as the enterprises located in the Black-Neckan industrial zone, "gladly" discharged their waste into the reservoirs located on the territory of the reservoir district: a long lake (thanks to which the district and got its name), In the Baikonur artesian well and a black river. Today, the authorities of the city revised their attitude to this unique zone and try to clear it in every way from the adverse effects of industrial enterprises.
Real estate in the district a bit. From the very beginning of the existence of the area, this area was considered something like the "buffer zone" between the residential arrays in the north of the Primorsky district and the extensive industries located south, on the shores of the black river. Houses were built here a little, in some places and at present it is possible to detect the "private sector" - wooden houses "like in the village". However, everything changes, thanks to picturesque lakes and ponds, untouched parks and a relatively convenient location regarding public transport, the district becomes very popular with developers. Prices are still low, housing can be purchased on average for $ 2000-2500 per square meter.

Promon area, broken roads, forever standing railway moves and trams. It is uncomfortable, however, the developed infrastructure, a convenient position relative to the city center and exit to the CAD makes this district very attractive for housing. The property is represented by a small number of houses of the Old and Stalinist Foundation, "new buildings" of the last century (mainly) and several newly built residential complexes. The cost of a square meter in the price-quality ratio is quite high: the same 2000-2500 dollars.
Lakhta-Olgino - separate picturesque area located on the seaside highway at the site of the historical settlements of Olginino and Lakhta. According to the census for the 2010th year, a little less than 4 thousand people live here.

It is in Lakhta who are going to build "Lakhta-Center" - the twin tower of Gazprom is one of the most controversial projects of recent years in St. Petersburg.
As can be seen from the very description of the counties of the district, it is a conservation zone, which is relatively easy to get from the metro station "Old Village" and "Specified". Almost every 15 minutes run route taxis, there is a bus service. Living in Olgino is becoming more pleasant: developers offer modern living conditions in combination with rustic silence and air purity. You can purchase both a country house and apartments in low-rise residential complexes. Prices are quite standard for St. Petersburg: class Comfort - from $ 3,000 per square meter, economy is cheaper.

It borders with the rest of the seaside districts of the Primorsky district and with the election area on the black river, the Kolomyazhki Avenue, parachute street and Sizov Avenue. Once here Pushkin and Dantes were shot here, first flights were held in balloons, and a little later, already in Soviet times, space rockets were tested. In the Great Patriotic War, it was on the Commandant airfield, risking life, pilots of transport aviation, which delivered food by the deposited Leningrad.
Today, it is the ever-growing area of \u200b\u200bmodern high-rise building, where, according to the data provided by the census of the population for the 2010th year, more than 85 thousand people live. Developed infrastructure, good roads that the city administration regularly repairs and improves, many parking lots, good transport accessibility - the district is very and very promising. The disadvantage here, perhaps, is that almost all territories of the commandant airfield have already been mastered anyway.
The property is represented by "old" and new new buildings, prices for one square meter of housing in which fluctuate from 2000 to 2800 dollars.
Municipal District No. 65 - a huge density municipal formation with the number of residents of more than 128 thousand people. Limited - Lahtinsky spill, River Glutchaka, Cleshoys and Gakkelevskaya streets before crossing the latter with a peat road, then on a peat road to the lime alley and on it - to a large sky and the Nevsky Lip to the bridge, perched through the Lakhta spill. The nearest metro station is the Old Village.
Most of the population of the Primorsky district live here. The place is popular, in this municipal district you willingly buy apartments for people of middle wealth: you can find quite economical suggestions in the secondary market.

The territory of the district is very inhomogeneous, it is the area of \u200b\u200bthe Juntolovsky Reserve, and the Chernorec industrial industries, residential buildings and the region of railway junctions. For this reason, housing in the kolomyagas can be found different, in various price categories and highly differentiated in quality.
