The article examines the stylistic features of Kyiv’s tenement houses from the late 19ᵗʰ century to the early 20ᵗʰ century. It is noted that the then urban planning requirements for street development led to unevenness in terms of architecture, which creates problems today, as secondary streets ended up in the central districts of Kyiv. The main features of tenement houses are identified, and it is argued why pseudo-styles (pseudo-Gothic, pseudo-Renaissance, pseudo-Moorish style) and neo-styles (Art Nouveau) usually remained “facade styles” without manifestations in the layout and interior. The main problems of preserving and using former tenement houses in today’s conditions are characterized.
