Pre-War Perfection!
Pre-War Perfection
The
Admaston was built in 1910-11 in the Beaux Art style of the famous designers
George and Edward Blum. Originally from France, the Blum brothers pursued
scattered studies of architecture both in New York and in France. By 1908, they
settled in New York and formed their own firm, becoming known over the next 20
years as among the most talented New York architects of the quintessential form
of 20th Century urban housing in the City-the apartment building.
The 12 story Admaston offers 72 spectacular apartments adorned with the
exquisite and unusual terra-cotta decorative elements that quickly became Blum
trademarks. From its commanding appearance right down to its smallest, most
intricate detail, this stately building exemplifies the incomparable elegance
and architectural integrity our hearts desire, while offering all the comforts
of home we long for.
