Vul. Henerala Chuprynky, 4 – residential building ID: 1797

This multi-unit apartment building was constructed between 1911 and 1912, based on a collaborative design by architects Ignacy Kędzierski and Adam Opolski. The structure is a four-story townhouse topped by a tall pyramidal roof. It was designed as a component of dense perimeter development on a lot shaped like an irregular pentagon. The façade features a centrally positioned bay window, flanked on the right by balconies. The entrance portal and entryway — connected at an angle to an oval stairwell — are located along the right firewall. The building's layout consists of a frontal block containing a row of living quarters with a central corridor and kitchen, and a rear service wing extending from the left side into the inner courtyard. Architecturally, the building represents early twentieth-century Neoclassicism blended with Late Secession forms. In later years, the apartment house underwent significant reconstruction.
