    The Eng Suey Sun Association remakes a Mott Street tenement with a Chinese-style porch

    By about 1950 the Eng Suey Sun Association, a Chinese family association, occupied this four-story brick building, which also fronts 199 Worth Street. Its symmetrical front is faced in cast stone and has a porch inset into the second floor in the Chinese style. The National Register nomination for the historic district names it among the sleek mid-century association buildings that stand out on Mott Street.
