In Arkhangel'sk? You bet it would cost a fortune, even though it's an "ice-free" port. Most of the time. Heat it with Baltic birch?

Where do you want to put that match?

Too much danger to the rest of the town if it burns.

Perhaps when the builder expires, the town can condemn the building and salvage enough lumber to construct a civic center, a new school, and a retirement home...

Just speculating... What do you suppose would be the result of setting a nice ashwood file in a first floor fireplace? Do you suppose this guy actually built a 13-story chimney? (My guess would be 'no'.)
