context_page_description: Kantemirovskiy Bridge is a large modern drawbridge in Saint Petersburg, Russia across the Bolshaya Nevka arm of the Neva river. The bridge connects the northern Aptekarsky Island of the north-central Petrogradsky District on Petrograd Side with northeastern Vyborgskiy District of the city and over it with the northeast and east of Saint Petersburg.
  It receives automobile traffic from Bolshoy Prospekt via Prospekt Medikov in the southwest and takes it to Kantemirovskaya Street on the right-hand riverside, after which it was named.
  The street itself was named in 1952 after the railway station of a settlement of Kantemirovka in Voronezh region which was liberated from Nazi Germany troops by the Soviet Red Army in December 1942, which was a military achievement. The settlement in its turn was named after its 18 century owner Dimitrie Cantemir and his brother Constantin, Moldavian princes given shelter in Russia after a military defeat and entered into Russian nobility.
