Budynok Uryadu, Government administrative building in Lypky district, Kyiv, Ukraine.

The ten-story structure features a half-circular facade with tall Corinthian columns, with its lower sections covered in Tulchyn labradorite blocks and polished granite.

The Budynok Uryadu, constructed between 1936 and 1938 by architects Ivan Fomin and Pavel Abrosimov, remained the highest building in Kyiv until 1954.

The building exemplifies Stalinist architectural design through its monumental proportions, classical elements, and the integration of local materials in its construction.

The structure houses the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and connects to other governmental buildings through a network of underground passages and a defense bunker.

The building's cast iron column capitals and bases measure 2.5 meters in height, while metal flagpoles and decorative gates were added in 1947.
