      • The design is by Leonty, Julius and Albert Benois with the participation of the architect Gunst, hence the name.
      • When built, the house had 250 apartments, 25 main entrances and 12 courtyards.
      • The facades are clad in light-grey talcochlorite, brought specially from Sweden.
      • The entrance to the main courtyard is framed by a double Doric colonnade of red Hanko granite.
      • Sergey Kirov lived in one of the apartments — it is now a museum.
