Description
Type: Single-day activity
Duration: 3 hours
* We invite you to take a historical promenade along Rubinstein Street.
We will talk about how our street turned from an inconspicuous Troitskiy Lane instead of a pilgrimage of informal groups of Petersburgers. Theatergoers, Soviet dissidents, rockers, hipsters, finally, they all enriched the street, making it one of the centers of the city's informal culture.
We are waiting for the most interesting buildings, such as the Tolstoy house by architect Lidval, the Ioff house with a tower forming the five corners ensemble, an unusual commune house for the city center called the Tear of Socialism, and many other buildings associated with the lives of St. Petersburg celebrities.
Leningrad rock club and cafe "Saigon", monument to Sergei Dovlatov and Olga Bergholts, courtyard mosaic and modern pubs: combining old and new, we will reveal for you the portrait of this amazing place.
We will also talk about a high-profile event that happened here in the era of the 90s — the murder of the popular St. Petersburg politician Mikhail Manevich and try to reconstruct these events.

• Rubinstein St.
• Five corners
