A workers' dormitory built in 1928 in Moscow's Alexeyevsky District, this constructivist building housed employees of a nearby cotton factory. The structure exemplifies the architectural principles of early Soviet modernism, with its emphasis on functional design and industrial aesthetics. Recognized as a tentative cultural heritage site in Russia, the dormitory represents an important chapter in Soviet-era housing development during the rapid industrialization of the late 1920s.
