In 1817, the site of the current mansion was occupied by a wooden house. At that time, the building had a classical facade and was aligned along the street’s red line. Until the early 20th century, the mansion was used solely as a residential property. In the late 1860s, the development belonged to Karl Valts, a machinist for Moscow theaters and founder of a theatrical dynasty. In the early 1900s, it housed a zither school run by composer Franz Bauer. Later, it became the property of Ms. Elizaveta Pautynskaya. After the revolution, in the early 1920s, the building was leased to employees of the newspaper Izvestia VTSIK. In the following decade, it hosted the printing house of the Economic Gazette and later the editorial office of Krasnaya Zvezda. During the Battle of Moscow, the house served as an air-raid shelter. In October 1941, the mansion was damaged by an explosion wave and was fully restored in the post-war years.
