Shah's Palace, second half of 19th century. Now Sea Transport Bank
The Shah's palace was until recently a Center for Folk Arts.
However it has now changed hands and has been modernized and restored in somewhat Oriental style.
The palace was erected by the Architect Gonsiorovsky in 1852.
In 1909, the deposed Shah of Iran bought the building.
At the outbreak of the revolution in Russia he escaped abandoning his harem as colorful Odessa legends have it.
Nowadays the building inhabits Sea Transport Bank
