Built in 1928, according to plans by Isadore Shank as apartments and storefronts, the DeBaliviere Building still anchors its eponymous corner with Delmar. It’s a stunning building, that sadly sits in a high automobile trafficked area with few pedestrians. I came back, five years later and photographed it again on foot and up close. Delmar is such a sad street; it’s just a traffic sewer now for people trying to get somewhere else quickly. It obviously was once a grand thoroughfare, bursting with life. Take a look at the photos of the building up close, enjoy its detail, and realize that most people just speed by.
I’ve been by this countless times over the year and for whatever reason never stopped to notice or appreciate this building like I just have thru your photographs. Thank you.
very interested in this building looking for space for daycare do you have any idea or no who is leasing the space for rent
You would need to stop by and see Latham Bell, whose address is 401 N. Newstead Avenue, #1N. I don’t know the phone number. Good luck!
