Located at Schlüterstraße 45, this five-story building combines elements of classical European architecture with residential and commercial spaces.

Built in 1912 by construction company Boswau & Knauer, the structure initially served as a revenue house for Stuttgart Life Insurance Bank representative Robert Leibbrand.

The building housed the studio of photographer Yva on the fourth and fifth floors, who later became the mentor of renowned photographer Helmut Newton.

The property maintains its dual function as a hotel and revenue house, situated near public transportation and commercial establishments in central Berlin.
