This,
and the adjacent matching house at 115 Eighth Avenue, are rock-face red
sandstone and Roman brick. The Carroll Street arch is worthy of Henry H.
Richardson, incised with naturalistic bas-reliefs, and supported by
clusters of Romanesque-capped columns. These are major Romanesque Revival
buildings.
