At the far left of this image is a brick corner building. It was constructed in 1927 for a Masonic temple but as the development of Forest Hills boomed in anticipation of the new subway line (the construction pictured here was subway work) the need for a bank arose. The Georgian Colonial style building became the Boulevard Bank within a few years (with the local real estate developer's sign at the top). It was still owned by the Masons who used a second-floor space. One of the first executives of the new bank was Fred Gretsch, a guitar maker who lived nearby. (Gretsch Guitars are now world famous.) Since 1966 the building has been home to the Sterling National Bank.
