A striking example of early Soviet constructivism, this residential complex in Nevsky District was built in 1926 to house workers of the Red October power plant. Designed in the utilitarian aesthetic characteristic of constructivist architecture, the complex exemplifies the Soviet commitment to providing modern housing for industrial laborers during the 1920s.
