A three-story flats building rises at 59-11 on what was then Van Courtlandt Avenue
Filed in 1910 as NB 1287-1910, this Renaissance Revival flats building is one of a group of tenements at 59-11 to 59-25 71st Avenue, a street originally called Van Courtlandt Avenue; its builder and architect have not been identified. Brick pilasters rest on foliated brackets and end in stone capitals carved with Maltese crosses. Later owners took out the stoop, dropped the first floor to street level and moved the entrance to fit in storefronts.
