Today I went to work in the industrial area of St. Petersburg.
Pictured is the Sea Canal. According to it, ships from the Baltic Sea get to St. Petersburg.

Behind it are various plants and factories. For example, at this alcohol plant in 1927, the chemist Lebedev produced artificial rubber for the first time in the world.

Before the revolution, the bridges to the factories across the canal were movable. Then everything was rebuilt. But here is one post of a mechanic, who was supposed to raise the bridge when the ship approached, is still preserved.

From here they controlled the lights of the buoys that marked the fairway.
