246 E 4th St

From a Village Voice article by #JessMcHugh about this #EastVillage #NYC building: “The flamboyant colors, which [Antonio “Tony”] Echeverri still mixes by hand when he has the facade of 246 East 4th Street repainted every five years, aren’t the only details that set his beloved building apart. From sculpted angels peeking off the upper-story windows to an ornate door complete with marbled molding, the building reveals more the longer you look at it. Passing through the archway of the front door, stamped pelicans and fish dot the staircase leading up to the apartments, inspired by a dream he once had.”
