The San Jose
"Another example [of walk-up apartment houses] is the San Jose Apartments (1928) ... . The apartments were quite varied in layout, with floor-through one and two bedroom units... . The San Jose's amenities were certainly not those of Kew Hall or the Mowbray, yet both kinds of apartment buildings existed in this burgeoning new community."
Quote from: Barry Lewis, Kew Gardens: Urban Village in the Big City, p. 48 (Kew Gardens Council for Recreation and the Arts 1999). 1938 picture courtesy of the Queens Borough Public Library, Long Island Division, Illustrations Collection - Kew Gardens.
