Vul. Henerala Chuprynky, 51 – residential building ID: 1816

This multi-unit apartment building was constructed between 1936 and 1937 based on a design by Henryk Sandig. It is a four-story townhouse designed in the Functionalist style. The main façade, characterized by a composition of rectangular forms, is set back from the property line. Its surface features rows of paired windows, strings of cornices with a corrugated texture, and an entrance portal shifted to the left. Facing the courtyard, a central avant-corps features a vertical ribbon of stairwell windows flanked by balconies. The building block, framed by two firewalls, has a rectangular layout divided crosswise by the axes of the entryways, the stairwell, and the internal apartment corridors.
