Description:
|
One of the city's first Art Deco buildings, its was erected in the hope . . . that Central Parkway, completed the following year, would become a major boulevard. Not until the Kroger Building, catty-corner from it, went up in 1960 did Central Parkway gain another significant structure." "The huge arched Romanesque entrance on Central Parkway has stonework of human faces, animals, and muscular, bellicose dwarfs. On the painted lobby ceiling cavort medieval dragons and griffins." (227) The building now contains 37 luxury condos
