This six-story building, addressed 80-02 to 80-28 37th Avenue, was built in 1928-29 for Hayes Construction Corp. to designs by Kavy & Kavovitt. It takes the whole end of the block, with shops along 37th Avenue and entrance courts on both 80th and 81st streets. Patterned brickwork, arched corbel tables and corner towers with open loggias give it a Romanesque look; on 81st Street the original metal and glass doors with a fanlight survive.
