Neva channels and islands divide the imperial-era street plan into connected sections. Bridges and long avenues link the historic center across a network shaped by the river delta.

Across four kilometres of central St. Petersburg, the Neva and its branches separate the former capital's main blocks. Bridge approaches and long avenues reconnect the river islands.

Cut the Neva channels from a pale stone ground and draw the long imperial avenues in deep blue. A restrained copper line can identify bridge approaches between the islands.
