Commercial School; now - institute of higher education

Architectural monument of national significance.  Dates from 1902.
13 O. Kalpaka Boulevard


 

In the early twentieth century Esplanade was partly covered with buildings. The Commercial School (1902 - 05, architect W. Bokslaff) and State Museum were built. The Commercial School represents the brick Gothic style; with its liberal, functionally grounded asymmetric planning it fits well in the surrounding landscape.
