      • Built in 1929-1930 to a design by Ivan Nikolaev for students of the Textile Institute.
      • In plan, the three blocks form a shape resembling an aeroplane.
      • Students slept in two-person cabins that held only beds and stools; there were 1,008 cabins.
      • Since 1968 it has been a dormitory of the Institute of Steel and Alloys; after a fire in 2010 the building was restored by 2017.
