We will begin the new journey through the northern capital with the main city highway - Nevsky Prospekt - and take a walk further along the historical center, the old foundry and Christmas units, visit the Petrograd side and Vasilievsky Island. We have a acquaintance with twenty -six houses. This list is not only profitable apartment buildings, but also public buildings. The first will be a story about house number 1 on Nevsky Prospekt - a building with an interesting but confusing past. Further about the building of the company "Zinger", known to many generations of Petersburgers as a "house of a book". We read about the difficult fate of the literary house. A further journey will pass through the streets of the historical center: Pushkinskaya, Millionnaya, Big Konyashennaya, Big Sea, Garden and Caravan. On the sink embankment, we will get acquainted with the past of two buildings, well known to all lovers of the history of St. Petersburg.
