Vul. Henerala Chuprynky, 15 – residential building ID: 1807

This multi-unit apartment building was constructed between 1910 and 1912, likely based on a design by architect Bronisław Bauer. It is a three-story townhouse featuring a raised basement level. Built with a setback from the regulatory building line, it forms a cohesive architectural group with the adjacent building at No. 11a. The primary L-shaped structure, featuring two façades and a corner bay window, is set back into the lot; together with a shoulder of an inner wing, it creates a U-shaped floor plan. The townhouse includes two entrances and two separate stairwells. The façades are articulated by protruded wall sections — which support the balconies — and a prominent cornice positioned above the first floor. Architecturally, the building serves as an example of Late Historicism, with various Neoclassical elements featured in its decor. In later years, the apartment house underwent significant reconstruction.
