    Built in 1911 for developer G. X. Mathews, 1873 Cornelia Street stands on lot 48 of Queens block 3472 and belongs to a nine-building Renaissance Revival group designed by Louis Allmendinger. Its front mixes pale yellow and amber brick with limestone string courses and arched amber-brick lintels at the second and third floors.
