The street is approximately 500 meters long. Although it is named as side street, it is wider (30 m) than main avenues of Petrogradsky District: Kamennoostrovsky Prospekt and Bolshoy Avenue (both approximately 20 meters).
There are several apartment buildings, the 32nd polyclinic (house number 3), the dormitory of Saint Petersburg State University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics (number 5-7), and Vyazemsky Garden.

Famous quotes containing the word street:
“If I should go out of church whenever I hear a false statement I could never stay there five minutes. But why come out? The street is as false as the church, and when I get to my house, or to my manners, or to my speech, I have not got away from the lie.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
—Herbert Hoover (1874–1964)
“I mount the steps and ring the bell, turning
Wearily, as one would turn to nod good-bye to Rochefoucauld,
If the street were time and he at the end of the street,
And I say, “Cousin Harriet, here is the Boston Evening Transcript.””
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
