Summary
[edit]
| Description | The Oakland Apartments, 107 Oakland Place, Buffalo, New York, January 2022. An outlier on a street otherwise lined with sumptuous privately-owned single-family mansions, this seven-unit apartment building was built by attorney-turned-real estate investor Joseph H. Morey, and was opened to occupancy by tenants on on May 1, 1910. Advertisements touted the building as "absolutely fireproof" and boasted of "hardwood floors, two baths, vacuum cleaner, [and] filtered water" in each unit, which were priced at $115-120 per month. Architecturally, the building's Neoclassical aesthetic is heavily indebted to the Colonial Revival, with a monumental Tuscan portico framing an front entrance where sidelights extend into an unusual transom above the segmentally-arched door, while on the uppermost floor six-over-six sash windows are crowned consecutively by a dentil row, modillion-bracketed cornice, parapet punctuated with smooth stone panels, and finally a flat roof. |
