Stands on Kamergerskiy Lane, the French hotel with its renowned Chevalier restaurant boasts great popularity among the aristocracy. The property was constructed between the 1830s and 1840s on the site of an earlier building destroyed in the Great Fire of 1812. It was owned by the merchant Hippolyte Chevalier. While modest in appearance, the hotel impressed with its luxurious interiors and refined French cuisine. Its owners created a touch of French chic in Moscow. Despite its short period of operation, the hotel welcomed prominent literary figures such as Leo Tolstoy, Nikolay Nekrasov, Alexander Pushkin, Afanasiy Fet, and Dmitriy Grigorovich. It was later converted into a tenement building named Novoye Vremya. In 1879, a temporary rooftop addition was made to house the studio of the Imperial Theatres’ photographer, Kanarskiy. In the 1950s, the ground floor was home to Moskniga bookstore, while the second floor accommodated two communal apartments. Later, the workshops of the Moscow Union of Artists were located there until their relocation in 1999. Today, the property is recognized as a cultural heritage site of regional significance.
