Swedish immigrant, from 1769 in Russian service. He was an important military analyst and expert and one of the organizers of the General Staff (1772). He was in charge of constructing stone harbours in St. Petersburg, Kronshtadt and Riga (based on his own projects)l; the city’s dockyard, the city wall, the Bolshoy Theater, Ekaterininsky Canal, the storm-water drainage system, the Fontanka River Embankments in St. Petersburg, Taitsky water works and other hydrotechnical structures, as well as roads and fortification structures. He is the author of projects of a number of fortresses and of the Road Manual (1783), which became the basis of road engineering rules in Russia. He owned a house on the Neva embankment (currently, 36 Kutuzova Embankment ; 1781-84, presumably, by architect Y. M. Felten).<br/><br/>References: Изображение жизни покойного генерала, инженера и кавалера Федора Виллимовича Боура. СПб., 1785.<br/><br/>Д. Ю. Гузевич, И. Д.
