1 of 7 Landmark Buildings in Moscow, Russia

We were told later this had become an apartment building for the rich, elite, and artist set.  Was also one of the seven similarly-styled buildings that could be easily spotted around Moscow.  I think we saw another one near the train station both when we arrived and departed.  We just happened to pass it on our morning excursion towards the Kremlin, Red Square, and St. Basil's Cathedral.
