    Owner Leopold Kaufmann built this six-and-a-half-story tenement in 1900 from designs by Schneider & Herter, at a cost of $29,000. It was planned to hold 26 families. The Renaissance Revival front keeps its original bracketed cornice and terra cotta window frames, and an elevated stoop leads to the decorated entrance.
