In WilliamsburgThis is the building for that door aboveAgain in WilliamsburgAnd this is the building that the one above came from. The Williansburg Savings Bank building. Not sure if it’s still a bank. But there’s one on Flatbush that now house very fancy condos.This one is around the Grand Army Plaza neighborhoodThis one too. They are two apartment building entrances…side by sideCan’t remember where this one was. But I’m sure if I take the time to look Google will have it all done. They time date and tag your photos. Creepy!! I took a look see…it’s in Williamsburg also. A place of worship, a side door ( compliments of Google)

Gorgeous doors in this collection.
A bank with a huge dome on it π
My how they sure used to love to flaunt their wealth and power at their customers back then.
..and it was usually built by a small board of the super rich. One of whom probably owned ALL of Williamsburg when it was farm land and worked by slaves.
I love the last one–looks like verdigris–is it? I’m curious–do you just pick a day and go out in the city hunting doors? This is my favorite feature! π
Sometimes. But must of the time I’m going about my day and see a fab door and have to stop and take a picture. These doors and that mural from the previous post was from the same neighborhood. That day I was on the hunt for this old record storeπ. And no, I don’t know what that door is.
Glad you like it. Thank you.
Ha ha, nice! Bet it had really high ceilings with art on it:) . The one on Flatbush Ave that’s now condos had the coolest floors I’ve ever seen in a lobby. A work of art!!!!!
All those old bank buildings were like art works, or museums. Until you went into the back rooms. Tiny metal winding stairs and one 1,000 mile extension cord LOL.
Beautiful! Those door look like they were made for giants.

Thanks for this article. I have even been inside that bank. Nice to see these from my new perspective (years later, and a, older photographers eye).
