Architecture Faculty
Architecture Faculty

Tashkent residents are well familiar with the three-story brick building with a rounded corner to the left of СUM. It was built in 1920 by architect Leonid Voronin for the “Sredazugol” organization.

In the 1940s–1950s, the Chemical Faculty of the Polytechnic Institute was located here.

Many call this building the “Architecture Faculty,” as it indeed housed the faculty starting from 1966.

Later, the Architecture Faculty of the Polytechnic Institute became part of the Architecture and Construction Institute and moved to another building.

Currently, the National Center for Human Rights of the Republic of Uzbekistan is located here.

The building has been reconstructed, with window frames replaced by plastic ones, which has spoiled its original appearance.
