The six-story Monterey Apartments went up in 1953-54 under permit NB 4324-1953, designed by Seelig & Finkelstein for the Ritalfo Building Corp. The Landmarks Preservation Commission counts it among the apartment houses of Jackson Heights' building phase after World War II. A deep central entrance court splits its street front into two wings, a vehicle door at the north end leads to a basement garage, and the late Moderne brick facade is trimmed only with band courses and corner quoins.
