Inscription.
This 1907 building was designed by Rossiter & Wright. It is an important example of the Italian Renaissance palazzo style as adapted for the luxury apartment house. The smooth limestone faced upper floors, crowned by a bold cornice, are separated from the base which is expressed by rusticated limestone on the lower three floors. A handsome Doric portico and crisp detailing enhance the elegance of the architectural design.
