  1. 1916

    Nos. 22 and 24 East 8th Street are remodeled in 1916 with groups of arched windows and a skylit roof

    Nos. 22 and 24 were among the houses of 1834-35 on Sailors' Snug Harbor land that the owner converted into apartments in 1916 under Maynicke & Franke. On every floor the pair shows a group of three windows, segmental-arched except for round arches at the fourth floor. No. 22 has the same steep, skylit roof as No. 20, while No. 24 has a three-part top-floor window under a steep hood.

    “Nos. 22 and 24 have for their theme, on each floor, a group of three windows, which are segmental-arched, except at the fourth floor…”
