BFA Landmark – 1129-1131 Broadway

1129 Broadway – Built 1930 – Architect: Unknown

From the 2004 Historical Resource Survey:

A two-story, two-part commercial block with a veneer of terra cotta and glazed yellow brick set in basketweave bond. The façade has a recessed, central entry with double-leaf doors to the upper level and two flanking storefronts with recessed, central-entry bays. The storefront transoms have intricate leaded glass detailing. The display windows have been covered. Full-height, terra cotta piers rise above the roofline. The stepped parapets are topped by terracotta pinnacles. The upper floor sections are three-bays wide with a triple-window grouping one-over-one double-hung sash and similar leaded-glass detail of the transoms in the headers. A three-story brick addition extends south from the south end of the main block.
