YM&YWHA, Upper East Side, Manhattan
This is the Young Men and Young Womens Hebrew Association’s Henry Kaufmann Building in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood. It was built in 1967 and designed by Gilbert L. Seltzer, architect, who’s firm still seems to exist in West Orange, NJ. … Continue reading
35 Fourth Avenue, Brooklyn, NY
A banal building, but with some yellow decorative paneling over both entrances that calls it out slightly. Too bad the paneling is faded and stained. The building was built in 1951 and houses city offices including a medicaid office.
