The six-storey building in neo- empire style, erected between 1914 and 1916 on Khreshchatyk No. 8, the capital boulevard of Kiev, housed the Kiev branch of the St. Petersburg account and credit bank. The house is one of the few buildings on the Khreshchatyk that escaped the major fire in 1941. It was built by the well-known Russian architect Leonti Benois with Renaissance shapes, good proportions and perfectly executed architectural details. The house has been an architectural monument since 1982 and is now home to the Khreshchatyk Bank .
