Before us is a classic example of a brownstone — a characteristic New York City type of urban residential building clad in brown sandstone. The façade architecture demonstrates an elegant Neo-Renaissance style with rich decorative finishing.
The building façade stands out with its symmetrical composition featuring two parallel staircases leading to entrances at the main level. The central part of the façade is clad with large blocks of rough-cut sandstone, creating an expressive textural contrast with the smoother areas.
Of particular value are the meticulously crafted decorative elements: arched windows with ornate wrought iron grilles, elegant cornices with brackets, ornamental reliefs above windows and doorways. The wooden doors with glazing preserve the building's historical appearance.
The side staircases with patterned balustrades and massive carved railings serve not only as functional elements but also as important aesthetic components of the composition. The stepped entrances characteristic of brownstones emphasize the vertical rhythm of the façade and create a smooth transition between the street space and living quarters.
