Here Israel Crausman breaks up the smoothness of the curve into the Entrance with a small rectilinear set-back maybe as a way of signaling the change to CBD mode at the street corner. Contrast with 910 across the street. Crausman owns this block from 910 Grand Concourse via 185 E 162 to 909 Sheridan but Charles Kreymborg ends it by using Crausman's style at 917 Sheridan next door. If you need a lawyer, 909 Sheridan is the place to go!
