As part of the revitalization of the historic Granary Island (Wyspa Spichrzów) in Gdańsk, a new pedestrian bridge over the Motława River will open at the end of July. The swing bridge connects Granary Island with the Long Bridge, the waterfront promenade of the historic Old Town. The 57-meter-long and 4.5-meter-wide structure provides access to the northern part of the island, whose buildings were almost completely destroyed during World War II. New housing developments and hotels have been under construction there for several years. Plans also include the modernization and expansion of the adjacent Marina Gdańsk. In addition, the former Milk Can Bridge (most Stągiewny) is to be restored to its pre-World War II appearance. Until its destruction, it served as a drawbridge directly in front of the Milk Can Gate. The two bastions of the Milk Can Gate, which were also destroyed, were rebuilt in the 1980s. (Source: https://schlesien-heute.de/inhalt/news/aufwertung-der-danziger-speicherinsel)

The street begins at St. Mary's Church and leads eastward to the Motlawa River, the medieval Mariacka Gate, and the adjacent House of the Natural History Society. Away from the through traffic of Long Street, the alleys around St. Mary's Church, and especially in Mariacka Street, often offered a quiet atmosphere reminiscent of the "tranquility of old Gdańsk days." With its narrow, richly decorated town houses and the "beischläge" (raised terraces located in front of the actual front door, often reached via ornate staircases), it is an example of Gdańsk's former street architecture. In 1945, Mariacka Street was completely destroyed and rebuilt in the 1950s and 1960s. One architectural critic has stated that today's Mariacka Street "contains the design quintessence of the entire city." Mariacka Street has served as the backdrop for several film productions. For example, in Buddenbrocks, where she portrayed "the beautiful world of Lübeck's patricians." "Yet, one has never seen additions of such grandeur and decorative opulence on the Trave." Several well-known personalities lived or worked in Frauengasse at various times: Frauengasse No. 2 During the Weimar Republic, the Protestant pastor and writer Artur Brausewetter (1864–1946) lived here. He was a deacon from 1893 and archdeacon from 1908 at St. Mary's Church in Gdansk, and wrote around 50 novels. House No. 2 in Frauengasse, a 17th-century building, served as the rectory of St. Mary's Church and, from the church's perspective, was the second house on the right side of the street. Frauengasse No. 3 From around 1934, the Karl Formell printing and publishing house was located here, run by Karl Formell, a trade union official and senator in Gdansk (Central City). The publishing house primarily published Catholic publications. Frauengasse No. 11 Between 1807 and 1814, this was the residence of Dagobert von Vegesack, a Prussian major who also served as resident and police chief in Danzig. Frauengasse No. 52 From 1909, the Protestant pastor Hermann Daniel lived here. Daniel, who was a deacon at St. Mary's Church in Danzig at the same time as Archdeacon Artur Brausewetter, who lived at Frauengasse No. 2. Source: Wikipedia
