Eastern Bridge, Steel bridge in central Moscow, Russia
The Eastern Bridge is a steel structure that crosses the Moskva River and connects multiple districts of Moscow. The bridge carries both vehicle and pedestrian traffic and forms part of the city's main transportation network across the river.
The bridge was built in 1937 during a major period of urban modernization in Moscow. It was constructed as part of broader infrastructure improvements that reshaped the city's connections across the river.
The bridge connects several neighborhoods and serves as a passage where locals move between residential areas and the Gorky Park zone. It functions as a practical link in the city's everyday rhythm rather than a gathering spot itself.
Crossing is straightforward for both vehicles and pedestrians, with clear access routes on both sides of the river. The bridge is near the Park Kultury metro station, making it easy to reach from different parts of the city.
The bridge has been a focal point for public expression during periods of social activity in Moscow. Its open design and visibility from surrounding areas have made it a location where community messages sometimes appear.
