She moved to a site in the center of Moscow, owned by a father-in-law company. On the basis of the historical building of the automatic telephone exchange constructed in the style of constructivism, Ms Evtushenkova with partner Teimuraz Shengelia, the former top manager of the Detsky Mir network, will create a complex of apartments.
