The Evil Apartment

Bolshaya Sadovaya, No 10. Bulgakov lived here in apartments 50 and 34 from 1921 to 1924.

Bulgakov's apartment, and presumably the prototype of the evil apartment No. 50 was through the archway into the courtyard and up a stair to the left. Here's what the courtyard looks like today:
