House with Chimeras
Bankovaia 10
This building was constructed by a famous Kiev architect Vladislav Gorodetskiy in 1903 — on the former bank of drained swamp. This place was prohibited for building up by Kiev house-building society. Many people at that time considered the construction of a house on the steep slope to be the madness. That’s why the house was primordially cloaked in legends: it is said that Gorodetskiy started building because of the bet with other architects who contended that it was impossible to build something in that place. Nevertheless the house was built in record time - in 2 years.
