Is it true that Rastrelli designed the palace in a week or two? That's what a well-inofmred old lady told me when I was visiting the palace. --Ghirla^-трёп- 13:09, 4 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

This certainly seems to be very likely - the dates are pretty compressed (from the fire on November 1st to the December 15). I believe that the design of the palace was ready prior to the fire though. Wikiolap (talk) 03:16, 5 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
