In 2015, the issue of demolishing a house and erecting a copy of it at the same place was raised at a meeting of the city administration. The restoration of the architectural monument was estimated at 130 million rubles, and the construction of a copy — only 20. The idea of demolishing the building was strongly criticized by the public. The main facade of the building has a rich decor. The main entrance is accented by a two-columned Doric portico, topped with a rectangular attic. In the interior, the old stucco molding has been partially preserved.
