Press release by KCAP+ORANGE
Golden City, Vasilievsky Island, St. Petersburg
The Golden City project is developed based on the winning entry of KCAP Architects&Planners and ORANGE Architects for the urban and architectural competition for the western most tip of the Vasilievsky Island in St.Petersburg. With its important role in the historical outreach of St. Petersburg towards the West, Vasiliesvky Island will become the most prominent manifestation of the city of St. Petersburg on the Gulf of Finland. With the urban plan, the 15ha site will become a new part of the city with a diverse mix of urban functions facilitating and interconnecting the surrounding areas. It will become a new face of St. Petersburg as the entrance to the city from the water.

Block 4, Vasilievsky Island
Block 4 forms the business card of the Golden City project. Although being part of the total ensemble, Block 4 at the same time differs from the other blocks by accommodating mostly business programs and supporting functions. The project is strategically well positioned at the entrance of the new development and ring road and has excellent links to the center of St. Petersburg.
