13 Smirnov Mansion NEW HOLLAND Address: 2 Admiralteysky Canal Embankment, St. Petersburg Nearest metro station: Admiralteyskaya WEB: The construction of New Holland was intricately tied to the history of the Admiralty. As part of his efforts to build Saint Petersburg up from swampland, Peter the Great brought in Dutch shipbuilders, giving them a workspace along the left bank of the Neva. This area soon began to resemble more of a foreign port, giving way to the nickname Holland, which was later fixed to the man-made island formed by the Moika river and the Admiralteysky and Kryukov Canals. In the 1730s, when the island itself was finally complete, it was handed over to the navy who commissioned the architect Korobov to design wooden barracks to store the lumber for shipbuilding purposes. In the middle of the 18th century, these wooden barns were replaced by sturdier stone structures. In the 20th century, buildings of New Holland Island fell into neglect, serving as military barracks, warehouses and - most recently- offices for various commercial enterprises.
