Gorstkin bridge, Pedestrian bridge across Fontanka River, Saint Petersburg, Russia.
Gorstkin Bridge extends 53.6 meters in length and 6.2 meters in width, connecting both banks of the Fontanka River as a continuation of Efimova Street.
The original wooden structure, built in 1910, underwent major reconstruction in 1928 to accommodate district heating pipes from the third Heating Power Plant.
The bridge structure reflects domestic architecture with granite steps and rough-hewn timber, representing a traditional Russian design in an urban setting.
Metal railings with stair descents at both ends provide access to the wooden deck, which serves pedestrians crossing between central Saint Petersburg districts.
During the 1949 renovation, engineers replaced all timber girders with metal I-beams and installed protective pile groups to shield supports from ice damage.
