Description

Architect Maurice Medcalfe transformed a 19th-century brownstone into this four-story residence in 1969. The modernist overhaul creates a sharp contrast with typical New York architecture along the street. While the private home currently appears vacant and slightly neglected, the exterior remains a striking architectural detour.
