    Horace Ginsbern designs an Art Deco apartment house at the corner of the Concourse and East 167th Street

    Filed as new-building application 331 of 1936 and finished in 1937, the six-story apartment house was designed by Horace Ginsbern for the Concourse-167 St. Corp., run by Kleben and Leader. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's district report describes beige brick with cast-stone trim, inset bay windows, corner windows that wrap around, and an entrance bay that rises into a rooftop bulkhead. Storefronts line the East 167th Street side, and a subway entrance sits at the corner.
