In 2015, the fa\u00e7ade underwent a major refurbishment under the \u2018Gda\u0144skie Fasady OdNowa\u2019 project, which aimed to improve the quality of public spaces in G\u0142\u00f3wne Miasto by adding architectural decoration to existing buildings that were omitted during Gda\u0144sk\u2019s reconstruction.<\/p>\n<p>The western, triaxial and four-storey fa\u00e7ade gained a sculptural decoration. In the gable end, a ceramic ornamental frieze with decorative motifs reminiscent of leaves was set out between the cornices, which were given the form of gold-glazed convex plaques.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Place:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The building is located in an area designated as a heritage site. It forms part of the historic urban layout of Gda\u0144sk. Szeroka Street was destroyed in 1945 during World War II. Most of the tenement houses were rebuilt without respecting the historical layout. Historic remnants can only be seen in the distinction of the separate fa\u00e7ades with gables and in the ridge layout perpendicular to the street. The height and width of the buildings were standardised, and consequently, the historic parcelling was not maintained. Retail and service units were located in the ground floor. Szeroka Street acts as a boundary between the historicising reconstruction and modern development: a place where the two ways of post-war reconstruction intertwine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Information about the authors: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Alicja Bu\u0142awka-Fankidejska<\/strong> graduated from the Faculty of Sculpture of the Academy of Fine Arts in Gda\u0144sk.
