Wandering Camera - Notes about St.Petersburg and it's suburbs

Wandering Camera

Album 243
(Translated by Lilya Sultanova)

This album will be dedicated to one curious building - the house of the architect N.N. Nikonov

As you may guess by the design of this building, Nikonov was fond of ancient Russian architecture.

Before he built this house, he designed and constructed merchant A.I. Gruzdev's house (house No. 53 on the Moskovsky Prospect), N.P. Bassin's house on Ostrovsky square, the facade of a house on the Dostoevsky street. Nikonov also elaborated the design of the church of the Lady of Kazan in Zelenogorsk (1913-1915.)
