Narkomfin building, Constructivist residential landmark in Presnensky District, Moscow, Russia

The Narkomfin Building features geometric shapes, flat roofs, large windows, and concrete construction with six floors connected by a covered bridge.

Architect Moisei Ginzburg designed this experimental residential complex in 1930 for employees of the Soviet People's Commissariat of Finance during early Soviet modernization.
