The New Admiralty Canal (Ново-Адмиралтейский канал) connects the Moyka River and Admiralty Canal to the Neva River. It was dug in the first quarter of the 18th century, and was originally called Galley canal (after Galley shipyard). In 1828 it became 1st Admiralty channel, and in 1836 it was given it's current name. The length is 275 m and the width is 6.10 m. It has a depth of 2.1 m with an average water flow of 1 m3 / s.
