description

The group of buildings was built for workers from the Voithfabrik , which was newly established in St. Pölten in 1903 , but the client was the “Association for the Building of Cheap Apartments”, which Hermann Ofner founded in 1903 to build workers' apartments (including for Erste Österreichische Glanzstoff-Fabriken AG ) . The buildings were built between 1907 and 1911 according to plans by the architect Rudolf Wondracek , after which the complex was taken over by Voith.

The facility consists of three-storey buildings that are assembled to form an open four-wing complex. Originally, the complex should have been closed. The façade next Nouveau designs also historistische elements and is used to Kranzbichlerstraße by flat, two-axis risalits structured with a flat sheet gables. The corner houses are decorated with single-axis risalits with a pyramid roof.
