A building in Crown Heights

[Edward]

The other day I happened to be in Crown Heights neighborhood in Brooklyn, and saw this unusual building on the corner of Nostrand Ave and Sterling Pl. Does anyone know anything about this building?

I like the look of that whole block, actually.

What is Crown Heights like these days?
