It was restored recently, in the upper picture it's a photo of it after restoration (photo from yesterday, actually) and in the lower picture - how the building together with surroundings looked few years back. Originally it was built in 1939, it was women's rehabilitation clinic back then. It was turned into children garden in Soviet times. After regaining independence, the building was almost given to some embassy, but then finally a heiress was found who resigned from ownership but with condition that children garden will be preserved here.
