Pogonska zgrada Ljuštionice riže, poznate pod nazivom Prima Fabrica Fiumana Per La Pillatura Del Riso, projektirana je 1881. prema nacrtima riječkog arhitekta Mate Glavana. Nalazila se u zapadnoj industrijskoj zoni na cesti Via Volosco (danas Ulica Milutina Barača). Govorimo o glomaznome peteroetažnom objektu, gotovo bedemske forme, s naglašenim trokutnim zabatima krovišta. Pročelje karakteriziraju nizovi prozorskih otvora i minimalna dekoracija. Danas od ove građevine nije sačuvano gotovo ništa budući da je nakon propasti Ljuštionice u potpunosti rekonstruirana i uklopljena u upravnu zgradu Rafinerije nafte. Glavan je bio zadužen za projektiranje skladišnih i drugih pratećih objekata u sklopu tvornice, uključujući i željezničke tračnice do samoga mora. Godine 1889. prema projektu uglednog arhitekta Giovannija Randicha započeta je izgradnja upravne zgrade Ljuštionice riže. Riječ je o troetažnom objektu skladnih proporcija bogato raščlanjena pročelja, s neorenesansnim karakteristikama. Zgrada se nalazila zapadno uz glavnu pogonsku zgradu. U drugoj polovici 19. stoljeća Ljuštionica je bila jedno od većih poduzeća prehrambene industrije. Investitor ovog pogona bila je Mađarska opća kreditna banka iz Budimpešte u suradnji s domaćim privrednicima. Godišnja proizvodnja 1890. iznosila je između 25 do 30 tisuća tona riže, a u tvornici je bilo zaposleno 400 radnika. Na prijelazu stoljeća Ljuštionica je prošla kroz razdoblje krize zbog izrazite konkurencije austrijskog, mađarskog i obližnjega tršćanskog tržišta. Ljuštionica riže prestaje s radom nakon Prvoga svjetskog rata, a na njezin se teren proširuje Rafinerija nafte. Glavna pogonska zgrada Ljuštionice postaje Administrativna zgrada Rafinerije nafte.

The Rice Mill with its rice-husking facility, also known as Prima Fabrica Fiumana Per La Pillatura Del Riso, was designed in 1881 by the local architect Mate Glavan. It was located in the western industrial zone, in the Via Volosco (today’s Milutina Barača Street). It is a bulky, almost bastion-like six-storey facility with prominent triangular gable roofing. The façade is characterized by rows of window openings and minimal decoration. Almost nothing has been preserved from this facility, since it was completely reconstructed and incorporated into the administration building of the Oil Refinery after the collapse of the Rice Mill. Glavan was in charge of the design of the storage and other auxiliary facilities within the factory complex, including the railroad tracks to the seashore. In 1889, the construction of the administrative building of the Rice Mill started according to the project of the esteemed architect Giovanni Randich. It was a three-storey facility with harmonious proportions and a richly articulated façade with neo-renaissance characteristics. The building was located on the west side, alongside the main production facility. In the second half of the 19th century, the Rice Mill was one of the major enterprises of the food industry. The investor for this facility was the Hungarian General Credit Bank from Budapest in cooperation with local businessmen. In 1890, the annual production amounted to 25,000-30,000 tons of rice, and the factory employed 400 workers. At the turn of the century, the rice mill went through a period of crisis due to strong competition from the Austrian, Hungarian and the nearby Trieste market. The Rice Mill ceased to operate after the First World War, and the Oil Refinery expanded its premises on the mill’s estate.
