In the Park Slope Historic District, a brownstone designed by noted 19th century architect Magnus Dahlander and built in the 1890s has been divided but still has an impressive amount of original detail. At one time an SRO, the five-story townhouse is now a five-family configured with three floor-through apartments over a duplex. Photos show an impressive exterior with dog leg stoop, two-story oriel, and original double entry doors. Inside, the parlor floor and bedrooms have lavish woodwork, a pier mirror, mantels with original tile, fretwork, and stained glass, all in apparently fine condition. An extravagant kitchen on the parlor floor appears to date from the 1990s, and no other wet rooms are shown. Presumably some updating of mechanicals and building systems could be in order.
