Hint: The Name Behind This Structure Is Still Active in NYC

New, 1 comment

Welcome back to Cornerspotter, Curbed's game in which you try to identify the location and/or identity of a particular building or streetscape in a historic photograph. Impress us and your fellow Curbed readers with your uncanny insight into New York City and its past!

This structure represented a different approach to living at the turn of the century, a time in New York City housing chronicled by Jacob Riis' How the Other Half Lives. While the man behind the project is long gone, his name and organization live on. Where was this structure, and who built it?
