    Blasius Wenzler and Matthaus Markle have a three-story apartment house built at 59-28 Putnam Avenue

    This brick-and-stone apartment building went up around 1908 for Blasius Wenzler and Matthaus Markle under new-building permit NB 2297-1908, with Louis Berger & Company as architect. The Renaissance Revival front rises three stories over a basement to arched top-floor windows with keystones and a bracketed, denticulated cornice. Its stone stoop and cast-iron railings and fencing survive, though the stone hood over the entrance has been taken off.
