Observing the chronological development of architecture, from the style influenced by socialist realism, to the authorial architecture of the 1940s and 1950s, the article brings into context the position of 'Hempro' building and its socio-historical significance, with particular focus on the key social events and circumstances that posed as important influence. The author reflects on the development of Terazije street, particularly the period from the early 19th century to date, as a commercial-administrative and representative area in the capital. Located in 8 Terazije street, the 'Hempro' building has been a part of the area since 1956, representing a manifest of the state and public authority of its time.
