The Baltic Shipyard (Baltiysky Zavod, formerly Shipyard #189 named after Sergo Ordzhonikidze) is located in St. Petersburg. It was founded in 1856 by Matvey Karr, a Russian merchant, and a Scottish engineer-shipbuilder Mark McPherson. Together with the Admiralty Shipyard, the Baltic built many Imperial Russian battleships. During the Soviet era, it manufactured nuclear-powered icebreakers. Currently, it specializes in merchant ships.
