This beautiful lakefront cooperative residential building was designed in 1928 by Charles Draper Faulkner, a prolific architect of Christian Science temples. The 13-story Renaissance Revival style red-brick building is detailed in patterned flagstone and Art Deco relief-cared limestone, rather than the terra cotta so prevalent in South Shore architecture of the era.
A private beach serves as the backyard for this elegant co-op building. It has two apartments per floor, each with sweeping views of the lake and skyline. Floors 4-11 have units with wide bay windows and original decorative fireplaces and moldings, and the 12th floor apartments have ten-foot barrel ceilings. Many of the original oval entry galleries and circular breakfast nooks remain intact, as do many of the original Vitrolite (solid colored glass tiles) 1920s bathrooms.
