    Nos. 744 and 748 Beck Street were designed in 1908 as a pair of multiple dwellings by the firm Daube & Kreymborg for Kellwood Realty. Five stories over basements, they are faced in Roman brick with limestone trim, brick quoins, splayed lintels with scroll keystones and an overhanging galvanized-iron cornice.

    “These multiple dwellings were designed as a pair in 1908 by the architectural firm of Daube & Kreymborg and built for Kellwood Realty.”
