Landmarks researchers singled out this 1923 building by the architects Cohn Bros. as the one 20th-century apartment house in the Central Ridgewood Historic District, and one of its biggest buildings. Standing four stories on a corner lot of 50 by 100 feet that it almost fills, it has two finished street fronts in the Arts and Crafts manner, with ornamental brick panels, lintels of header brick set off by big keystones, and a squared-off, stylized cornice.
“One 20th-century apartment house was built within the Central Ridgewood Historic District at 59-36 70th Avenue (1923, Cohn Bros., architects).”
