Today the St. Petersburg Grand building can be seen for many miles – almost any side of town at a suitable vantage point. The project, originally planned in the vicinity of the center of the city, was in 2011 moved to the North-Western part of St. Petersburg, the Gulf of Finland, and was named “Lahta-the centre”. Address of building «Gazprom» in St. Petersburg – Lakhtinsky Ave, D. 2, K. 3.

Integration in the urban landscape

It is Worth remembering that initially, the complex was placed in Krasnogvardeyskiy district, at the mouth of the Okhta river, but a violent reaction of the public, the position of UNESCO and other factors contributed to the postponement of construction in the Bay area. The main stumbling block was the discrepancy of height of building «Gazprom» in St. Petersburg the existing high-rise regulations, which potential dominant feature of the city contrasted sharply with the cultural heritage sites of 18-19 centuries. In the 2008-2009 year in St. Petersburg held several rallies and other events aimed at the abolition of the project. The position of the parties was to ensure that “Lahta-the centre” in the case of the construction will destroy the image of the city.

the building of Gazprom in St. PetersburgAs a result, it was decided to build the complex in the Primorsky district, away from the historic centre. In this area the height of the “Lahta-the centre” does not bother anyone, as suggested by the creators of the project, the placement of such a large complex in the area with a large number of vacant territories should give a boost to infrastructure development of the Primorsky district.

Objects in the center

The area of the future public and business center, together with its attendant buildings will be more than 400 thousand square meters, one third of which is office space.

As part of “Lakhta center» in St. Petersburg there will be a social and shopping space, educational, medical and Convention centers, gyms, Parking area and other objects.

It is Known that buildings with original architecture does not provide one hundred percent usable area. In the case of the building «Gazprom in St. Petersburg” would be used of the space lying below the elevation at 400 meters. The spire will remain a “desert” and serve as aesthetic purpose, creating a visual integrity of the complex and the forming performance is another symbol of cultural capital.

The location of the building away from the historical centre has a number of logistical advantages. On the one hand, this availability of spaces for Parking and formation of additional infrastructure, on the other – optimization of the transport situation, which certainly was complicated would be the location of the complex near the mouth of the Okhta river, where it was originally intended.

The stability of the building at the St. Petersburg clay provides more than two thousand piles with length up to 65 meters, the problem of glaciation of the inclined surface of the upper part of the tower and spire is solved by the establishment of a special system of heating, which is extremely important in terms of SPb. In “Lahta-the centre” in case of fire and smoke there is a special safe zone and elevators to evacuate people from the upper floors. Will be used and a special system of waste disposal. Thanks to her, reduced carbon emissions, and the volume of the collected waste will be reduced on the order relative to traditional methods of disposal.
