Gorbaty bridge

Gorbaty Bridge is a road bridge in Presnensky District featuring a distinctive curved profile with an elevated central section. The structure spans a major thoroughfare and accommodates both vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

The bridge was constructed during the Soviet era to meet Moscow's expanding transportation needs. Its designation as a cultural heritage site reflects its importance in Soviet-era infrastructure development.

The bridge takes its name from the distinctive hump-like curve visible when crossing it or passing nearby. This shape has become recognizable to locals as part of their everyday route through the district.

The bridge is easily accessible on foot from various points in the district and can be viewed from multiple angles. It is best observed during daytime when the curved form is most visible.

The bridge's curved design was specifically engineered to solve a unique transportation problem in the city's development. This solution demonstrates how Soviet engineers adapted design thinking to address practical urban challenges.
