Description
City hospital on Bolshaya Kaluzhskaya street is one of the most significant public buildings created by architect O.Bove. It was the first hospital built at the expense of the city. Bove used the mansion scheme in the composition of the ensemble of few blocks. The centre of the extended main building is being emphasised with a large portico. The decoration of the walls is quite modest and consists of flat exedras and two piers with an ornamented architrave.
