St. Petersburg “Perspective Roads” in the First Half of 18th Century
The article studies St. Petersburg “Perspective Roads” of the first half of the 18th century, listed by A. Bogdanov in 1751. The routes of “Perspective Roads” are traced to modern city roads. The author shows a link between the “Perspective Roads” and tsar’s routes leading out of the city. The article shows that the existing turn on the Nevsky prospect can be explained that the initial plan included two intersecting roads, and one of which led to the Peter and Paul Cathedral.
Keywords:
perspective road, orienting point, dominant, street, plan, direction.
