About the house on Kudrinskaya Square, 1
The house on Kudrinskaya Square (from 1925 to 1992 — Vosstaniya Square) was built in 1948-1954 by architects M. V. Posokhin, A. A. Mndoyants and designer M. N. Vokhomsky.
The building consists of a central (24 floors, height with tower and spire — 156 meters) and side buildings (18 residential floors each), forming a single structural array based on a common ground floor.
In total, there are over 450 apartments in the building. In 1955, the book value of the building was 648 million rubles. Employees of the aviation industry, test pilots and the nomenclature of the Central Committee of the CPSU and the Council of Ministers of the USSR received apartments in the house.
The technical floors of the side buildings were subsequently upgraded and turned into residential. They can be accessed by stairs, climbing from the entrance, or by open passages from the central tower.
The main part of the building includes 3 large entrances (1 for each of the buildings) and a large number of small ones that differ in layout. Each small entrance is equipped with one elevator, has a small number of floors (no more than 12), 1-4 apartments per floor.
Large entrances (1st, 4th, 14th) are serviced by three elevators each. The central elevator of the 1st entrance (central building) is capable of rising to the 23rd and 24th floors, but in the normal mode of its operation this possibility is blocked. In addition, all 3 elevators of the 1st entrance do not stop on the 2nd floor.

There are from 4 to 8 apartments on each floor, the lobbies are richly decorated (mirrors, chandeliers) and can be locked, isolating the floor from stairs and platforms in front of the elevator (in fact, each floor is divided by an elevator zone into two lobbies).
On the second floor (1st entrance) there is the Directorate of GUP EVAZD, which serves this house and a number of other high-rise buildings.
The elevator located in the tower, designed to serve the 24-30 floors, which was in disrepair for a long time, has now been restored by the owner of the residential premises on the 25th floor. The premises of the tower on the upper floors are currently used as office or leased to commercial structures, mainly for the placement of communication equipment.
