The above photograph shows how the building was extended on the Americká side to fill the gap seen on the earlier 1950s photograph.

There are now plans to extend the Chamber Theatre (Komorní divadlo) into this building.

    The building was built as “Hasicska vzájemná pojišťovna” in 1939 together with the building of “Lidová univerzita Husova” (Theatre).
