Once again, I headed down to Capitol Hill in search of Art Deco.
Clicking on the pictures will enlarge them to better see details.

I don’t know when the The Washington was built, the angled brick in the windowsills should indicate post-war construction, but the entranceway seems right out of the late-1930s.

The Dorset House, built 1938, has great horizontal Streamline Modern elements contrasting with the vertical entranceway.

This radial corner entranceway is made of black marble and polished stainless steel.

I park my car and then hustle around The Hill on a longboard skateboard,
so if you see a foolish looking older guy trying not to break his neck
navigating cobblestone sidewalks, while trying to take photos, that’s me!

Here are some examples with similar stacked-brick entranceways.

The Cheesman Arms is listed on apartment websites as dating
from 1930, but that seems 15 years too early, maybe I’m wrong.

From this angle, you can see the rounded brick on the vertical columns.

Corona Manor

The Pearl Place Apartments has the classic three row accents,
expressed here in dark reddish-brown brick, typical of Streamline
Modern.

The same apartment listing website has Pearl Place Apartments listed as built in 1950, and that is probably 10-12 years too late for this building, in my opinion.

Classic asymmetrical Art Deco entranceway

The Parkaire

Similar use of red-brick horizontal banding and the three row accents of the Pearl Place Apartments, but with corner windows and a much more dramatic black marble entranceway with white stripes.

I would guess a late-1930s construction date. I notice the air conditioning units are located thoughtfully in the horizontal banding design!

The Galaxy. I am uncertain on the antiquity of this building
(I like the sign)

Unusual use of tile, also a nice asymetrical window design above the doorway.

An interesting vertical entranceway to a 50s-era apartment building
