In his youth he lived in Dresden .

In 1892-1895 he was chairman of the Peterhof district zemstvo council. In 1881, he set up a fire brigade in Strelna at his own expense, which became a school for the training of firemasters and senior ranks of the fire service.

On the initiative of Lviv in 1892, the I All-Russian Fire-Technical Exhibition was opened in St. Petersburg under the auspices of the Imperial Russian Technical Society.

He became an associate of Count A. D. Sheremetev , who was replaced in 1894 by the chairman of the Main Council of the Company and held this position until 1916.

The creation of a wide network of voluntary teams and squads, numbering more than 40 thousand people by the beginning of the First World War, should be attributed to Lviv’s main merit. On his initiative, All-Russian mobile fire-technical exhibitions were created on the basis of the specially equipped river ship Pervenets (1897) and trains (1899), flying on the Russian outback (116 and 78 sites, respectively).
