According to Sergey Razzhivin, the director of the Main Department of Capital Construction of Nizhny Novgorod, the contractor is currently working on the interior finishing of the premises. Parquet flooring is being laid, doors are being restored and installed, and materials for gilding decorative elements of the interior have been prepared. The restoration of the historic mansion has been ongoing since 2019 and has been suspended several times during this period.
