   A hat factory is rebuilt as an auto repair shop and artificial flower factory with a new Arts and Crafts front

   In 1923 architect Ferdinand Savignano reworked this building for owner Michael Ambrose, converting a hat factory into an automobile repair shop that also housed an artificial flower factory. The result was in effect a new building, with a molded entrance frame, a corbelled brick band above the second story and a two-toned brick parapet.

   “Building effectively rebuilt in 1923 when a hat factory was converted into an automobile repair shop and artificial flower factory.”
