Across the street from from Prospect Park, we have a floorthrough of similar age and style, but with mostly white-painted woodwork and a white kitchen. Located between 10th and 11th streets, the four-story apartment house was designed by architect Frank Holmberg and built in 1899 in the Romanesque Revival style. The two-bedroom co-op has parquet floors, decorative ceilings, and nicely renovated wet rooms. The classic bathroom combines subway tile, a penny tile floor and wallpaper. The second bedroom appears big enough for a queen-size bed. There are four closets and an office area with built-in desk. The building has basement storage space and a shared roof deck.
