This map shows the results of Resolution 1731, proposed in December 2007. The different colors signal different heights permitted in different areas of the city; these detailed heights vary even within the same colored zone, and are printed on larger-scale maps that accompanied this one. Of particular interest is Zone 8 (purple), which specifies minimum heights ranging from e.g. 64 meters to 129 meters. I accessed this map from the St. Petersburg city planning website. The maps took a while to download, but they are freely available-- which, it should be noted, is a significant public service.
This map shows some of the prestige projects proposed or underway around Vasilievsky Island in the Neva delta (located at the center of the city map above). The yellowish areas at center right are the Peter and Paul Fortress (top) and the Winter Palace (center); you can see how near the center some of the projects are.
This map shows some of the projects proposed to the east of the historic center. The Stockmann Shopping Center is actually under construction after the demolishing in fall 2006 of a historic building at the top of Nevsky Avenue on Vosstaniya (Uprising) Square.
