The design for the Pashkov House is attributed to Vasily Bahenov, who is also responsible for the original Tsaritsyno Palace.
The Pashkov House (Russian:  ) is a neoclassical mansion that stands on a hill overlooking the western wall of the Moscow Kremlin, near the crossing of the Mokhovaya and Vozdvizhenka streets. Its design has been attributed to Vasily Bazhenov. Vasily Ivanovich Bazhenov (Russian:   ) (March 1 (N.S. 12), 1737 or 1738  August 2 (N.S. 13), 1799) was a Russian neoclassical architect, graphic artist, architectural theorist and educator. The imperial palace in Tsaritsyno Park fell victim to the Battle of the Palaces; Bazhenov's palace core was demolished on the orders of Catherine II. Tsaritsyno (Russian: , IPA: [tsritsn) is a palace museum and park reserve in the south of Moscow. In 1776-85 architect Vasili Bazhenov built a palace for the Empress there. When the palace was almost complete, the Empress visited Tsaritsyno to inspect it. She declared the rooms to be too cramped and dark, and the palace unlivable. As a result, Catherine ordered the palace to be torn down. The remnants of the foundation of Bazhenov's original palace are still visible in the park.
