Eclecticism in Yakovoapostolsky Lane
This year, the six-story building at 15 Yakovoapostolsky Lane has already been renovated. It was built in 1913 according to an individual project in the eclectic style. The courtyard facades are made of brick, and on those facing the street, the four lower floors are faced with unpainted white ceramic tiles. There is a crowning cornice along the perimeter of the building.
Here, the roof and facade were renewed, which together with the glazed tiles were cleaned and washed. In some places, if necessary, local repair of the brickwork was carried out. Then, open surfaces in places of dampness were treated with an antifungal compound, and the glazed tiles were made hydrophobic. The building was plastered, the upper floors and the courtyard facade were painted white by the craftsmen.
