=========================================================
Od dob zakladatele Nového Mesta pražského Karla IV. je oblast Vetrova opredena tajemnou atmosférou. Tísnivé pocity z cásti mesta mezi ulici Jecnou, Vyšehradskou, Albertovem a ulicí Sokolskou, dnes s objekty nemocnic, márnic, vysokých škol a patologií, pripomíná pohled do ulice Apolinárská smerem ke kostelu sv. Apolináre. V centru barokní dum c.p. 436/II. Vpravo vchod do prostoru barokního kláštera alžbetinek P. Marie Sedmibolestné, postaveného podle projektu Kiliána Ignáce Dientzenhofera v letech 1726-1732.
Vstup do prostoru kláštera alžbetinek zustal prakticky nedotcen, ovšem barokní budova c.p. 436/11 byla zborena v roce 1928 a vzápetí c.p. prešlo na rodinný dum z let 1932-1933, stojící za zdí vlevo, pricemž došlo k narovnání ulicní cáry. Poté ústí ulice uzavrel nájemní dum c.p 434/II, který v letech 1928-1929 nahradil starší objekt stredovekého puvodu.
