Schneider & Herter designed this brick apartment house in 1900 for Johanna Baumann. The apartments are entered from West Ninth Street, and a restaurant with round arches, classical detail and a columned corner entrance occupies the ground floor on Sixth Avenue. Stone-trimmed windows and a bracketed sheet-metal cornice finish the seven-story building, which is as tall as its neighbor, Bigelow's.
