House of B. Goldbergas

The house of Beras Goldbergas is marked by a simple yet harmonious facade and a rational plan. There were two three-room apartments on each floor. In the symmetric composition of the facade all elements are distributed evenly and proportionately. The somewhat thickened end parts near the second and third floor windows have narrow "French" type balconies. The building was held to be modern and stylish; pictures of it were published in newspapers.

Elementary school

The school consists of two blocks: a long one alongside the street and one joined perpendicularly in the yard. The classrooms are arranged on the street, the southern, side; while the corridors run into the yard. It was probably only when the school`s construction was coming to an end that it was decided to add the Pedagogical Museum. The overlays used in this school building were unique: beamless and made of continuous interconnected ceramic blocks. The composition of the street exterior attempted to enhance the impression of the facade`s length even more, an impression created by the monotonic rhythm of uniformly narrow windows and barely discernible pilaster strips.
