The Petrogradskaya Side is one of the most interesting districts of St. Petersburg . Despite the fact that the city began here, the House of Peter I, the Peter and Paul Fortress, the first port, the stock exchange, the first church - Trinity, this part of the city was sparsely populated until the second half of the 19th century. It actively began to build up after the construction of the Trinity Bridge in 1903, after which the area received constant communication with the central regions. The time of construction - the junction of the 19th and 20th centuries - is reflected in architecture: mainly modern and eclectic .
