Carter’s Review

"This handsome, 9-story, mid-block apartment building was erected in 1985. It is a condominium and has 19 apartments.

Saga House has many very nice curved metal window grills and many rounded balconies with metal railings that together with the soft red brick of the façade give the building an appealing and robust appearance that contributes nicely to this pleasant sidestreet."
