    Charles M. Straub designs a six-story tenement for Saul Wollenstein

    Architect Charles M. Straub designed this six-story tenement for owner Saul Wollenstein, and it was built in 1906. Its facade has elaborate terra-cotta window frames and lintels, and the original bracketed cornice survives. Cast-iron piers flank the entrance, though the storefront has been largely altered.
