18 Mar richard nickel’s “polish palazzo” and nearby angles he admired from window and doorstep
richard nickel’s “polish palazzo” located at 1810 cortland street. the images were taken from the time he purchased it in 1969 until his death in 1972.
sadly, the facade and a few feet of the original two-story building remain standing. most of it was demolished with the space later integrated into a neighboring home.
he admired the neighboring towering stamped tin full-figured winged angels along the roofline of st. mary of angels (1899) looking down on his building.
