690 Gerard Avenue
- 10451
- Year: 1935
- Architect: Robert E. Golden
- Styles: Classic Bronx Deco
- Collections: Good Cornering, Lovely Lobbies
- Practically all original large CBD in good condition. Robert Golden also designed 711 Walton Avenue just round the corner but the buildings have nothing in common. The wide Entrance yard is now behind gates. Delicate brick patterns are achieved with two tones of beige brick. Abstract Terrazzo floor recalls that at 160 Bush Street. Ceiling plaster patterns are similar to those on the floor. Excellent urban architecture.
