    Fortieth Realty Corp. fills a whole blockfront with Moderne shops by Shampan & Shampan

    Fortieth Realty Corp. built this block-long, one-story commercial building in 1947-48, with stores on 37th Avenue and on both 84th and 85th Streets. Shampan & Shampan designed it in the Moderne style, with bands of header brick, a stepped parapet capped in cast stone and cast-stone plaques. The same firm and developer put up a near twin one block east at about the same time.
