Welcome back to Monochromes, a Friday mini-series wherein Curbed delves deep into the Library of Congress’;s photographic annals, resurfacing with an armful of old black-and-white photos of architecture and interior layout of yesteryear. Have a uncover you want to share? Hit up the tipline we would really like to hear from you.
Architect Morris Lapidus may possibly be famous for his Miami oeuvre of Neo-Baroque and Modern architecture—he’;s the man who created Miami’;s Fontainebleau Hotel, which he proudly dubbed “the world’;s most pretentious hotel”—in the 1940s he was based mostly in NYC. Here he had an office headquarters on 49th Street—vintage photographs this way—and lived in an adorable house in Brooklyn. Under: all the 1941 photographs of his home plucked straight from the Library of Congress’; Gottscho-Schleisner Collection.
