Trading house of P.V. Shchetinkin

In 1913, Pavel Vasilyevich Shchetinin began the construction of a personal building on the corner of Sobornaya and Predtechenskaya in Samara, intended for a Trading house. According to some reports, the construction management was entrusted to Yakov Stepanovich Ushakov-Reshetnikov. In 1914, the construction was completed, and the building with two floors, a dome and a spire, as well as a huge balcony on the second floor, was decorated with grayish kabanchik tiles with two types of inserts - carpets of majolica blue-green and mother-of-pearl tiles. In 1932, architect S. K. Yefremov completed the additional construction of three floors.
