The Cranlyn, Brooklyn

The Cranlyn, Brooklyn

Had a wonderful afternoon wandering around a rainy and foggy Brooklyn with Susan from MindfulWalker.com. One highlight, among many, was The Cranlyn at 80 Cranberry Street in Brooklyn Heights designed by Hyman Isaac Feldman and dating from 1931.

Obviously we were attracted by the banded brick work and the decoration at the roofline of each wing and then we saw the decorative panels above some of the doorways.

Not to mention the main entrance ...

The foyer had some nice features ...
