See Lucius Mantonya Flats, Chicago, Illinois

Lucius Mantonya Flats on Chicago's Gold Coast was built in 1887. This Moorish Revival and Queen Anne-style building was designed by Curd H. Gottig for Lucius B. Mantonya to serve as a rental apartment building. The building features a yellow brick front facade with a red rusticated sandstone base, red sandstone trim, keyhole-shaped Moorish arched bays on the front facade and three-story bay window, stained glass and decorative glass transoms, upper sash, and panels that frame fixed windows, decorative carved rosettes, stone belt coursing at the sill lines of the windows, a cornice with machicolations and decorative carved reliefs, and a low-slope roof enclosed by a parapet. The building is a contributing structure in the Gold Coast Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
