you're welcome :)

Something weird seems to have gone on, I'm sure I had posted a picture showing the layout of the various modules of the building, but it doesn't show up anymore.

Huh, I actually went here for my military draft medical checkup, cool to see :)

Hum.. I didn't expect that anyone would want to build the components of this building separately, after all it's a specific ensemble...
I'm sorry, I don't think I'll do that any time soon, as it would require a fair amount of time to be done properly, and it would have to be done for both LODs etc, too much redundant work, while I'm eager to carry on with my next mod :/

ErL1x, that's so cool, you live in one of the best districts of the city then :)

Thanks Felipe ^^

Can you close up the models a little so they can be build standalone if we want, without the invisible walls?

The building of the Kirovsky district council was erected by the architect N. A. Trotsky in 1930-1935. One of the vivid manifestations of the Leningrad avant-garde. The building contained district authorities, cultural institutions, mail, and a meeting room. A variety of functions dictated an asymmetric structure. The main four-story building of the building is strongly pulled along the area, striving for a 50-meter rectangular tower with a comb of balconies, which became a high-altitude dominant of the district. This 11-storey tower, crowned with a trimmed cube with a giant sickle and a hammer, is a certain reference to traditional European town halls, at the same time with its gear silhouette, recalling Moscow buildings I. A. Fomin.

The building is "serious". According to declassified documents, more than two thousand grave plates, monuments and boards (2000 tons of materials) from the Mitrofanevsky cemetery took the construction of the district council. The cemetery was equal to the ground with the personal order of Sergei Kirov. The use of a monolithic reinforced concrete frame made it possible to create a full -fledged strip glazing that passes from the main body to a semicircular ledge on the left, as a result of the length of the windows reaches 120 m. On the ground floor of the main facade, pylons with a wide step are used, creating the illusion of “houses on piles”; Long horizontals are broken by a rectangular two -story schematic portico.

Three perpendicular wings associated with long galleries on poles depart from the main corps. In 1935, a semicircular corps with the hall of meetings was attached from the western side. (In 1958 it was rebuilt to the Progress cinema.) This part perfectly rhymes with the semicircular end of the left body. The squat cylindrical volume in the yard was occupied by the dining room.
