    Berger sets ornate iron colonnettes between heavy brick piers at 115-121 Wooster Street

    The facade of this six-story building splits into four groups of four bays, each group framed by banded brick piers. Between the windows, iron colonnettes change design from one floor to the next, drawing on classical models. On the top floor the arched windows are divided by twisted iron colonnettes. The cornice rests on modillions, with brackets capped by miniature pediments at its ends.

    “…windows are separated by iron colonnettes. These differ from floor to floor and are elaborately fashioned in designs derived from classical sources…”
