Birzhevoy Bridge, Steel bridge in Vasilyevsky Island, Russia.
The Exchange Bridge spans 239 meters across the Little Neva River, connecting Vasilyevsky and Petrogradsky islands with its steel structure and granite piers.
Built in 1894, the bridge underwent substantial reconstruction in 1956, enhancing its structural capabilities while maintaining its connection to the Old Saint Petersburg Stock Exchange.
The bridge features cast iron railings with maritime designs, reflecting Saint Petersburg's connection to naval traditions and maritime commerce through architectural elements.
Sportivnaya metro station provides direct access to the bridge, which remains open throughout the night for continuous vehicle and pedestrian movement.
Three architects - Noskov, Areshev, and Demchenko - collaborated on the bridge design, incorporating five spans that complement the nearby Palace Bridge.
