    1868 Cornelia Street dates from 1911, when the developer G. X. Mathews filed permit NB 1318-11 for nine buildings on the east side of the block between Onderdonk and Woodward Avenues, running from 1852 at the Onderdonk corner to 1870. Louis Allmendinger was the architect, and the landmarks report describes the row's style as Renaissance and Romanesque Revival.

    1868 Cornelia Street keeps its bluestone stoop, with an added step

    Read more

    When surveyed for the historic district, 1868 Cornelia Street still had its historic bluestone stoop and railing, paired wood-and-glass doors and wood basement windows with grilles. An extra step had been added to the stoop, which was painted tan with the stone base, and old wood windows with storms survived in two bays of the second floor.
