The bridge near Gorky Park is called. Berth of the Central Park of Culture and Leisure named after Gorky (Park of Culture and Rest): river trips on motor ships in Gorky Park, the schedule of departure of river trams, purchase of electronic tickets at a discount

Andreevsky Bridge near Gorky Park in recent years has become one of the most popular places among Moscow youth and guests of the capital, however, in addition to fans of spectacular views of the city, this place also attracts drinkers, as well as aggressive young people from the regions. Local residents complain that the complete lack of control over this bridge has caused the problem to spread to the entire area.

As noted "MBH Media", Muscovites have already accumulated many stories that suggest that the situation on the Andreevsky Bridge is unhealthy. At the same time, the management of Gorky Park does nothing about this, and the Moscow authorities turn a blind eye to what is happening.

The bridge is a glass "greenhouse" 130 meters long. Inside the "greenhouse" there are three dirty yellow security booths. The covered part of the bridge is not crowded: most people climb over the fence and climb the arch. Nobody pays attention to the numerous prohibition signs.

The journalist witnessed how the guard of the bridge jumped onto the arch and began to climb to the violators, approached the young girls and asked them for a cigarette. Having lit a cigarette, the chop man sat down next to them, his legs dangling carelessly. The second security guard, of retirement age, was drinking vodka with a friend right at the booth.

According to one of the guards on the Andreevsky Bridge, they periodically call the police. Law enforcement officers come once or twice a day, take one of them for order, and leave the rest alone. If something serious has happened, law enforcement officers are still in no hurry to reach Andreevsky Bridge: by their arrival, all the hooligans have already fled. The guards admitted that fights are taking place there regularly, but "you can't keep track of everyone."

The Gormost State Budgetary Institution is responsible for hiring the chop officers, but they could not promptly comment on what was happening there. The administration of Gorky Park first of all stressed that they were not responsible for the events on the bridge.

Local residents complain in Facebook that this problem has already spread to the entire surrounding area. “Now it’s not only unpleasant to walk (mate, screaming), but it’s really scary. I don’t risk releasing my 16-year-old girlfriend at 8 pm,” said the Muscovite. One of the townspeople noted that it all began after the reconstruction of Gorky Park: "Before that, they were drinking inside. Now they are drinking on the bridge and nearby squares. The bridge should be transferred to the Park of Culture so that their private security company would stand there."

One of the most notorious incidents on this bridge was the recent case of a young native of Dagestan, a medical student Amir Abumuslimov who fell into a coma after meeting a group of cocky and aggressive youth. Hooligans hit the young man on the head, and by the time the law enforcement officers appeared, they had disappeared. The police, however, were in no hurry to pursue the perpetrators, and a criminal case was opened only after the victim's parents arrived in Moscow from Dagestan.

The Pushkin pedestrian bridge, connecting the Pushkinskaya embankment of the Neskuchny garden with the Frunzenskaya embankment, was opened in 2000.

The bridge is famous not only for the neighborhood of the Neskuchny Garden and the Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure, but also for the magnificent views from open observation decks.

However, the bridge itself has a much older history: its basis was the designs of Andreevsky railway bridge, built in 1905-1907. The bridge was originally designed by L.D. Proskuryakov and A.N. Pomerantsev, and is a monument of engineering art, as indicated by a plate on one of its pillars.

Previously, the bridge stood somewhat higher along the river, and it was transported to its present place by barges. A similar technology was used during the construction; it is interesting that its "progenitor" - the Krasnoluzhsky railway bridge - was also designed by Proskuryakov and Pomerantsev.


It is noteworthy that the name of the bridge is a very obscure mystery. It is believed that the bridge is officially called Pushkin, but most Muscovites (and, by the way, many maps and reference books, including Yandex and Google maps) are used to calling it an "unofficial" name - Andreevsky pedestrian bridge.

On one of the pillars there is a memorial plaque with the names of the architects and the date of the construction of the Andreevsky railway bridge; perhaps this is where the confusion came from.

Fortunately, this bridge is not alike in everything - there is not a single store, not a single stall inside :)


However, I will move on to the purpose of the story - the types. To begin with - a panorama towards the Sparrow Hills.


Well, now - the details :)

In a small cozy "amphitheater" on the pier "Gorky Central Park of Culture and Leisure" Pushkinskaya embankment hides a copy of the Girl with a Paddle, installed in September 2011.

Pay attention to the planked area - it is popular with athletes and dancers.


Pushkinskaya Embankment and Neskuchny Garden, behind which rises the building of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and behind the Presidium itself - the natural reserve "Vorobyovy Gory".

Andreevsky is visible behind the bridge male monastery founded in 1648. The buildings of the monastery, unfortunately, have a later date of construction.


Novoandreevsky railway and road bridges.
This place is notable for the fact that, being the Andreevsky railway, the Pushkin pedestrian bridge stood exactly there :) New bridges were erected after it was moved to its present place; in fact, for their construction and moved it.

Behind the bridge you can see the St. Andrew's Monastery and the natural reserve "Vorobyovy Gory".


Frunzenskaya embankment is famous for its wonderful architectural landscape. Most of the houses standing by the river were built in the 30-50s of the 20th century, and this is precisely why the embankment has earned my love. If it weren't for the billboards sticking out at every step and obscene store signs, this would be practically an exemplary Soviet street :)




The spire of the main building of Moscow State University looks out from behind the houses.


House with a turret - Frunzenskaya embankment, 24. Built in the early 1950s according to the project of architects B.S. Mezentsev and S.P. Turgenev.


And now - a view towards the Crimean bridge, the Gorky Central Park and the Kremlin :)
By the way, it resembles the view with, but much closer and more interesting.


This is not visible in the panorama, but if you look to the left, you can see the Moscow-City MIBC.


Frunzenskaya embankment, 22 - The main headquarters of the Russian ground forces. The building was built from 1940 to 1951 according to the project of the architect L.V. Rudnev.


Hidden behind a huge building is an equally huge, but much more distant building of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.


But the Ostankino TV tower did not manage to hide - you can see it perfectly from here. Even the Russian flag, erected on its top, is visible - albeit not in color.


And here is the famous Crimean bridge, behind which is hidden a number of equally well-known attractions.

Every inhabitant of the capital knows this bridge. This bridge is one of the main attractions of Gorky Park. The bridge connects the noisy Frunzenskaya embankment from the most romantic Pushkinskaya embankment of Gorky Park.

The architects of the bridge Lavr Dmitrievich Proskuryakov and Alexander Nikanorovich Pomerantsev in the distant 1905-1907 did not even realize that many years later their brainchild would undergo serious changes - their bridge would turn into a pedestrian bridge, it would be renamed Pushkin and young metropolitan people would hang out on its massive bearing arches extreme lovers, and guests of the capital, dangling their legs.


The bridge is located in the noisy, lively Gorky Park of Culture and Leisure, and if you don't even find a free space, climb up the Pushkin Bridge, unless of course you are afraid. Find a place on the massive arch of the bridge, there are two arches - there is enough space for everyone. Sit down more comfortably, bring your legs together and sunbathe for your pleasure - the bridge's guards have long ceased to remove thrill-seekers from it.

Each arch of the Pushkin Bridge weighs about 1.5 thousand tons and will withstand any extreme. Every summer these arches of the bridge turn into a dangerous attraction for young people who consider it their duty to climb to the very top and sit there with their legs dangling comfortably. Oddly enough, in the covered part there are two security booths and only one security officer. The guard indifferently watches as the youth rest on massive beams about 8.5 meters high from the level of the bridge, exposing themselves to the danger of falling and being injured to death.
