One of the most picturesque bridges in Moscow, spanning the Yauza River near the Spaso-Andronikov Monastery, with its concise and monumental forms, resembles ancient Roman aqueducts.

Built in 1865 for the Kursk (Nizhny Novgorod) railway, the bridge had three spans, with the riverbed passing through the central span.

The design of the bridge impresses with its clarity and elegance. It connects two slopes of high embankments, and its side is adorned with three semicircular arches. Only the piers on either side of the central span slightly protrude forward with their sloped edges. Above the piers and arches are small technical openings of the same arched shape but smaller in size. These are complemented by small balconies and consoles of viewing passages, through which drainage pipes run. These elements appeared during the first reconstruction of the bridge in 1888. During the second reconstruction, carried out in 1950-1951 by engineers N. M. Kolokolov, S. Ya. Teryokhin, and architect B. M. Nadezhin, the thin metal railings of the balconies were replaced with more massive 'lanterns' with geometric lattice patterns. At that time, the smooth walls were adorned with relief edging of the arched curves and high keystones. The main change was the addition of a fourth span, under which the roadway of the embankment passed beneath a new arch.
