    John P. Schweikert was both designer and owner of the five-story old-law tenement at 52 MacDougal Street, completed in 1884. It has a rusticated brownstone base, brick upper floors with brownstone sills and lintels, and an elaborate cornice with dentils, rosettes and acanthus leaves. The Commission also points to the entrance pilasters with flowers and an entablature carrying Native American imagery.
