Pickwick Arms, interior courtyard, ca. 1925. The triangular design of the apartment building allowed for an interior courtyard (enter by large gated archways). The lush courtyard was designed with a tile-roofed gazebo. By 2008 the lion-head fountain (seen to the left and below the gazebo) had been removed and the gazebo was in a dilapidated state. The gazebo was shored up to maintain its structural stability and it was renovated. It still stands in the courtyard of the Pickwick Arms.

Pickwick Arms, ca. 1925. This five-story Tudor style apartment building has an imposing look that is the result of siting on a triangle lot and having a angular north facing facade that seems to be jutting out. Built in 1923, the exterior of the building remains very well preserved, though the window awnings and flag pole have been removed.
