GRAMERCY COURT
152-156 East 22nd Street
Architect: Bernstein & Bernstein
1907

This rather unusual six-story structure was planned to house 32 families. Stylistically, the building is a rather whimsical amalgam of carious forms. The symmetrically massed structure has a limestone base witha a central Neo-Gothic entrance. The upper facade is clad in brick laid in Colonial Revival-inspired Flemish bond with burned headers. There is extensive terra-cotta detail on the upper stories, including ornate Renaissance spandrel panels and, below the third-floor windows, fanciful heads. Perhaps taking their cue for the design from the adjacent Breese Carriage House, Bernstein & Bernstein crowned this apartment building with an unusual row of five stepped gables.
