Grechesky Prospekt is a street in the center of St. Petersburg, only about a kilometer long, yet so many renowned architects contributed to its unique appearance: B.A. Brzhostovsky, A.F. Bubyr, E.I. Ferry-de-Pigny, N.V. Vasiliev, and many others. One of the book's co-authors, V.G. Isachenko, will introduce you to the creative biographies of these architects, representing a wide range of disciplines. A.F. Veksler recounts the lives of the inhabitants of these beautiful buildings. The writers F.M. Dostoevsky, Yu.N. Tynyanov, V.A. Kaverin, Irina Odoevtseva, the artist I.Ya. Bilibin, and public figures P.N. Milyukov and P.A. Putyatin all lived here. The book also includes a description of Paradnaya Street, a natural extension of Grechesky Prospekt.
