History
Stepan Akimov came from a bourgeois family, he was born in 1854. His relatives owned the estate, which was located on the corner of Kankrinskaya street and Cathedral Lane. The estate was divided into two parts: according to the law, one part was owned by Lyubov, Ekaterina and Ivan Akimov. And the other part belonged to Stepan Akimov, who at that time already had a wife Maria and a daughter named Anna. The house brought 80 rubles of annual income. In 1899, Stepan Akimov received permission to build a two-story house with a basement. At that time, home ownership was located at: Kankrinskaya street, 26. The house brought an annual income of 390 rubles. In 1911, it became the property of Akimov’s daughter, Anna Stepanovna Akimova. In 1920, the house was partially destroyed due to a shell falling into it: the blast wave shattered glass, the roof was broken, cracks appeared on the walls. Because of this, the building began to continue to collapse. In March 1922, a resident of the Voronezh province Nikolai Korolkov agreed to buy real estate, which was valued at 300 million rubles. He could not completely restore the house. After municipalization, the former owner sought to return the building to his property, but there are no facts that would confirm that he was able to achieve this [2] . The house needs restoration work [3] .
