After the preliminary examination of the project in July 1874 and the examination of the seven competing projects submitted, Sherwood and Semjonow were awarded the contract in May 1875. In 1875 Semyonov built a church in Sokolniki after a building by Pavel Petrovich Sykows that had not been preserved .
