Blackstone Apartments

Blackstone Apartments were built in 1924. It is a four-story Baroque-style building with a rounded extending porch supported by double Corinthian columns. The terrace above the porch is formed with three arches, some convex, some concave. The walls and some elements of decoration are made of black stones, hence the name. After 1945, this building was home to the United Nation’s General Agency of Postwar Relief.
