   1827 Cornelia Street gets the row's limestone doorway and swagged cornice

   Built with the row's carved limestone doorway, swagged cornice and decorative brickwork, 1827 Cornelia Street had its front cleaned and repointed by the time of the 2010 landmarks report. Most windows had aluminum storm sashes, a few bays had aluminum windows, plywood covered the basement windows, and the stoop had been rebuilt in brick and cast stone. The historic metal areaway railing and newel posts survive, and the six-bay rear wall carries a fire escape.
