    Landmarks report praises the stone and brickwork of the Romanesque Revival row at 302-308

    No. 304 belongs to a four-building Romanesque Revival row that the commission included in the Mott Haven Historic District in 1969. Its report says the row relies on materials for its effect: rock-faced stone covers the basement and first floor, with expressive brickwork above, and a corbeled cornice of brick and sheet metal runs across all four fronts over small panels of toothed brick.
