One of the worst exampleles of the reconstruction of the historical buildings during the 00's. It was upbuilt by two additional floors and the facade was chanded as much as it's impossible to recognise the old building in it. My heart bleeds when I see this monster vs. the previous appearence of this building -> yandex.ru/maps/-/CHwHq8pt

 

The building is considered to be the prototpe of Bolkonsky-the-father's mansion from Tolstoi's War and Peace. And in real life it was the mansion of Tolstoi's grandfather - the general Nikolai Volkonsky.
