Izvestia Building, Constructivist newspaper building in Tverskoy District, Russia.

The Izvestia Building stands at the intersection of geometric forms and functional design, featuring clean lines and purposeful architectural elements throughout its structure.

Architect Gregori Barkhin completed this building in 1927 during the early Soviet period, marking a transition in Russian architectural approaches and media establishments.

Located on Tverskaya Street, the building remains accessible through multiple metro stations and bus lines that connect to Moscow's central transportation network.

The building's design incorporates specialized printing facilities within its structure, reflecting the industrial requirements of newspaper production in the twentieth century.
