“House on Chicken Legs” built in 1966 on Novosmolenskaya Embankment of St. Petersburg, Russia. (Next to "Primorskaya" metro station.)




“House 1” on Novosmolenskaya Embankment (1983-1986) spans 760 meters long and is one of the longest buildings in the city.

Construction — in with the new, renovating the old, paint jobs, scaffolding, and otherwise




Constructivist darling — Jakov Chernikov, Krazny Gvozdilschik (Red Carnation Factory), 1931, Vasilievsky Island
