Abstract The article discusses the creative activities of the Far Eastern architects of the second half of the 19th - beginning of the 20th century, who worked in the wake of one of the rational architectural trends called a “brick” style, widespread at that time in central Russia and on its outskirts. A full-scale research and analysis of the objects of the creative heritage of Far Eastern architects, preserved in Blagoveshchensk, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Ussuriysk, Kamchatka peninsula and Sakhalin island were conducted in the course of the study. As a result, during the reviewing period the general patterns of “brick” architecture development in the region were established, as well as the distinctive features of the work of individual architects who worked in different cities of the Far East.
