    The Jackson Heights Apt. Corp. built the six-story Ravenna Court in 1928-29 to designs by Rogers & Haneman, taking the whole end of the block on 37th Avenue between 80th and 81st streets. Its Romanesque-inspired walls use diaperwork, corbeling and blind arcades; open loggias with peaked roofs top four corner towers, and heraldic stone lions sit on the sloping walls in front of the two entrance courts.
