Oktabrskaia Embankment, Cultural heritage street along the Neva River in Saint Petersburg, Russia

Oktabrskaia Embankment stretches for nine kilometers along the right bank of the Neva River, connecting the Finland Railway Bridge to Narodnaya Street.

The embankment was constructed between 1932 and 1936 under the direction of engineer I.B. Tarasenko and architect K.M. Dmitriev to enhance riverfront infrastructure.

The granite-lined embankment serves as a representation of Saint Petersburg's architectural traditions, featuring various structural elements from different periods.

The location provides direct access to multiple parks, cultural institutions, and public spaces while serving as a primary transportation route in the Nevsky District.

In January 1992, the embankment received official recognition as a regional cultural heritage site through order number 108-r from Saint Petersburg's Mayor.
