Tremont Branch, date unknown. The neo-Federal, red brick Tremont Library was designed by Carrère & Hastings and completed in 1905. The cornerstone was laid on January 21, 1904 at an event attended by a couple hundred people. One the speakers at this program was Reverent F.B. Makepeace, President of the Bronx Free Library, which has only the year before merged with the NYPL. In 1916, using surplus funds from the Carnegie bequest, the addition was constructed.

Bronx Borough Hall, ca. 1905. Constructed on a high rocky plateau in what was then an extension of Crotona Park, the original Bronx Municipal Building the structure was contemporaneously described as a "common sense building with pleasant architectural results." The work of famed architect George B. Post (who went on to design the new New York Stock Exchange building in 1903), the three-story building was rendered in a Renaissance Revival style. Renamed the Bronx Borough Hall only a year after completion following the consolidation of the Greater New York City, the building once celebrated would find detractors in the first decades of the 20th century. As the population of the borough boomed, the building was criticized for being inadequate and impossible to enlarge (due to its somewhat precarious location). By 1934 most borough offices and services were relocated from this building to the new Bronx County Courthouse on the Grand Concourse. The only government service left in the building by the 1960s was the Marriage License Bureau and it was then referred to as the "Old Borough Hall." Designated a city landmark in 1965, a few months after the passage of the Landmarks Law (it was the first Bronx landmark), the decision was overturned by the Board of Estimate the next year. Following a fire, which caused the structure to be deemed unsafe, it was demolished in 1969. Today the land on which the building stood is part of Tremont Park.
