Read more
In 1899 architect Mitchell Bernstein drew up this seven-story tenement, built under the city's new-law rules, for owner Charles Bales. The facade is buff brick with Renaissance Revival detail, including stone lintels, scalloped keystones and a pressed-metal cornice. Parts of the original ground-floor storefront survive, among them a bracketed bulkhead and cast-iron piers, and the Landmarks Preservation Commission lists the building as contributing to the Sullivan-Thompson Historic District.
