The three-story building's Art Deco edifice remains largely intact from its 1932 opening. "It recall[s] the Empire State Building -- it has all these Art Deco details as you get closer," said Tenzing Chadotsang, who directs a grant program for the commission and first brought the building to the city's attention. The commission discussed the building at Tuesday's meeting, when they designated four other buildings as landmarks, but pushed the decision back to a later date. [Brooklyn Paper]
