BOS Archives - Opis:
- As a result of the destructions in the period 1939-1945, as well as dismantlements, modifications and reconstructions in the following years, little of the Warsaw tenement buildings from early 20th century has survived until the present. Moreover, the tenements which have survived have been subject to significant modifications. Another serious difficulty in the research and examination of Warsaw architecture from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries are the limitations in the scope of both quality and availability of original design files, as well as illustrative materials from the period before 1939. In this context, the files from the Capital City Reconstruction Office are the only source of information on certain non-existing tenement houses. An important role in creating Warsaw tenement architecture at the beginning of the 20th century was played primarily by young architects, graduates of foreign technical schools of higher education, prepared excellently for changes in the profession as well as in the investment process. The most renowned architects from the point of view of the number and sizes of erected tenement houses, the quality of their architecture, as well as the number of modern construction and technical solutions employed were Henryk Stifelman (working together with Stanisław Weiss), as well as Wacław Heppen (working together with Józef Napoleon Czerwiński). In spite of employing modern technical solutions, some of the tenement houses erected by the two partnerships were destroyed in the years 1939-1945 and other were modified significantly in the following years. In many cases, the architecture and technical solutions of either non-existing or substantially modified tenement houses designed by the partnerships of Stifelman-Weiss and Heppen-Czerwiński had not been properly documented before 1939. An important and, in many cases, the only source of knowledge about non-existing tenement houses are documents collected in the Archives of the Capital City Reconstruction Office, as well as in the Archives Department of the Administrative Bureau of the Municipal Office of the Capital City of Warsaw. The documents collected in the files of the Capital City Reconstruction Office consist of the general part, containing maps, diagrams and basic information on the state of preservation of individual buildings, as well as the detailed one, in many cases containing the measurements of the preserved structure, correspondence, letters, photographs, cost estimates, orders and other, more detailed information. In many cases, the detailed part makes it possible to learn about the architecture of the tenement houses, their supporting structure, certain systems used in the interior, sizes and shapes of individual building elements, like, among others, cornices, bays, balconies, walls or openings, as well as determining formal reasons for dismantling or modification. In consideration of the total destruction of the original design documentation, lack of detailed examination of the buildings from the early 20th century before 1939, as well as a limited number and scope of the available illustrative material, the documentation forming the archives of the Capital City Reconstruction Office is, in many cases, considered to be a fundamental or the most important source of information about the unpreserved Warsaw tenement houses, including the tenement houses designed by the architectural and building partnerships of Henryk Stifelman with Stanisław Weiss and of Wacław Heppen with Józef Napoleon Czerwiński.
