    Ignatz Martin's 59-19 Catalpa Avenue goes up as a wood-frame flats building

    This three-story flats building over a basement went up around 1911 for owner Ignatz Martin under new-building permit 3 of that year, with Louis Berger & Company as architects. It is a wood house in the Queen Anne style, one of four flats buildings from 59-19 to 59-25 Catalpa Avenue. It has since been covered in vinyl siding, its window hoods were removed and its cornice removed or covered, but a carved wood door hood with sunburst brackets survives.
