In 1914, Robert Schulz set up a restaurant on the ground floor[2] until 1920.
Architecture
Tenement presents an early modernist style.[3]
The three-storey avant-corps are decorated with laurel wreaths and stylized vases and flowers low-reliefs. A dissymetry is created by balconies on the right side and logias on the opposite side.[3] Inside, the building has got a preserved elevator with a wrought metal door.
Paul Sellner, the architect, has been a student of Karl Bergner. In 1904, he opened his own architectural study office in Bydgoszcz, where he stayed at least until 1922.[3] In Bydgoszcz Paul Sellner designed also another habitation house at Świętojańska Street 2, (intersection with Gdanska Street) in 1911-1912.
