This is a deceptively large house on Clinton Avenue in Brooklyn. Constructed in 1905 for John Shepard by Manhattan based architect Theodore Visscher. Clinton Hill had turned into “the” place to be in Brooklyn following the move of the Pratt Family to the neighborhood, Shepard was the assistant treasurer of the Title Guarantee and Trust Company making this an ideal location to build his home. What makes this house so unique is its design. It extends deep into the lot allowing it to maintain a rather tidy symmetrical entryway, and it’s one of the few buildings that was built in a Venetian Revival Style in New York. The only other big examples of this were the Pulitzer Mansion, and the Montauk Club in Park Slope. It underwent renovations in 2004 and is still a single family home. It was landmarked as a part of the Clinton Hill Historic District on November 10th, 1981.
