This is the
Rudigerhof apartment building in Vienna. It's a nice example of the Jugenstihl style. It was designed by
Oskar Marmorek and built in 1902. It has a neat cafe on ground level, which (according to my
TimeOut Vienna guidebook) was frequented by the socialist politician
Viktor Adler (who organized the 1st May Day parade), and was the site of at least one meeting between him and Lenin and Trotsky (though I'm suspicious of the claim about Lenin -- his movements in Vienna are harder to track than those of the other socialists).
