    Builders file 37-46 and 37-52 85th Street with corner sun porches and tiled loggias

    Filed as NB 2761-1919, the two-unit building at 37-46 and 37-52 85th Street shows Linden Court's Mediterranean details. Enlarged corner windows form sun porches, and at the top floor these become enclosed loggias with pilasters and engaged colonnettes under red tile roofs. Its street front is flush, with a generous lightcourt at the rear, and its round-arched entrances hold heavy double wooden doors beneath tympani with iron grilles.
