1 East 75th Street ARCHITECT: Hale & Rogers DATE: 1907-08 STYLE: Italian Renaissance

This imposing residence in the style of an Italian Renaissance palazzo is outstanding not only for the excellence of design and beauty of execution but also for a subtle richness of detail. Five stories high with basement and sub-basement, its dignity and quiet elegance are due in part to the large plain wall areas of Tennessee marble and the sparing but effective use of ornament.
