In the Samotniak, the average area of one apartment was approximately 12 sq m. The apartments had no bathrooms or kitchens. Residents had access only to shared washrooms and kitchens on individual floors. In recent years, residents were relocated to other apartments to allow the building to be modernized.
The renovated building will contain 29 new apartments for rent. The apartments will be finished to a turnkey standard. Their area will range from 30 to 63 sq m. The building will be adapted to the needs of people with disabilities. A passenger elevator, a stroller and wheelchair storage room, and a drying room are planned for the building.
