1260 Apartment Building
1260 N. Prospect Ave.
1938

This important Art Deco structure was built by Harry Grant, former owner and publisher of the Milwaukee Journal. There are 8 apartments on each floor and two penthouses. Herbert Tullgren designed the apartments of two stories each. The elevators stop only on the odd-numbered floors, to minimize noise on the bedroom floors. The design was patented by Tullgren (U.S. Patent 1,896,734).
