   Filed under permit NB 1287-1910 along with its neighbors at 59-11 to 59-25, this Renaissance Revival flats building rises three stories in brick and stone, with tall brick pilasters capped by stone capitals carved with Maltese crosses. Like 59-11 and 59-13, it later lost its stoop when the ground floor was lowered and turned into shops, though its present storefronts are not the ones first installed. Its pressed-metal cornice with festoons and egg-and-dart moldings is original.
