A bit of history<\/strong><\/p>\nThe building is in downtown Bucharest, at the corner of Coandă and Vasile Alecsandri streets. We found it registered in the Bucharest City List of Historical Monuments, under position 220, with code B-II-m-B-17946, and the street address “str. Alecsandri Vasile 13 sector 1”, dated “1900”. The Building Permit, whose copy can be found in the National Archives of Romania, mentions it as a private dwelling. The building’s initial owner was a certain Maria Rădulescu, but the name of its architect and builder are currently unknown. Architecturally and stylistically, the house bears the marks of the urban wagon-house and of the academic eclecticism specific for the end of the 19th century and beginning of the 20th century.<\/p>\n
The building plan, with a half cellar, ground floor, and attic, is L-shaped. A central distribution hallway leads to four rooms (drawing room, boudoir, bedroom, room), and to a corridor placed along the southern property limit. Two more rooms are on this side. At the end of the 20th century, following consolidation works, the garage was also added. Architecturally, this new body took over decorative elements from the house (eaves, spandrels) and the same colour was chosen for the exterior paint. The introduction of the garage further led to remodelling the western end of the house, where the former latrine used to be. A secondary access between the house and the garage thus appeared.<\/p>\n
