ART DECO FOUR FAMILY
An Art Deco masterpiece, this four family near Potomac and Brannon has a magnificent black vitrolite facade. Love the landscaping.
'Diamond' vitrolite
Stained glass tulips on each door.
Certainly not the original screen doors. They were probably wood and matched the door behind.
This is one of the few buildings I've met that has face brick on all walls (as does its garage below)
Painted black to match the vitrolite!
Wormed brick.
The matching garage
