This very impressive 12-story building was converted from a commercial buildingto a rental apartment building in 1986.One of the handsomest buildings in the Garment Center, it has a two-story rusticated limestone base with slightly arched windows on the second floor, huge finials atop balconies on the third and fourth floors and several very decorative window surrounds near the top of the building, which has a nice cornice. It has rusticated rounded quoins at its corners and rusticated limestone piers that run up the lower ten floors. This very attractive and robust Edwardian rendition of an Italian Renaissance palazzo was a style that was used in several midtown hotels of the period, several of which are still standing. Call James for showing.
