Julius Boekell designs a five-story tenement for William Wagner
Architect Julius Boekell designed this five-story pre-law tenement for owner William Wagner in 1875, and it went up together with its neighbor on the next lot. The red-brick facade pairs plain Italianate segmental lintels with a fancier Neo-Grec-style cornice. The ground floor now has brick infill, though a few nineteenth-century columns can still be seen.
