The Waldman is a Mediterranean Revival pre‑war residential building completed in 1923 and designed by local architects Fisher and Fisher. Rising just a few stories over surrounding blocks, the property presents a masonry façade, period ornamentation and a landscaped garden/courtyard that faces Cheesman Park. Units are primarily two‑bedroom layouts (with frequent den/office conversions) featuring high ceilings, original hardwood or parquet floors, classic moldings, French doors, and fireplaces in select residences. Kitchens and bathrooms have been selectively modernized in many units to include granite or quartz counters, island or breakfast bar configurations, pantry space and updated appliances while retaining vintage detail. Common elements include an entrance foyer, elevator access, on‑site laundry, storage rooms, and a maintenance‑free exterior; several listings reference deeded garage parking across the street and a dedicated parking space or storage for some owners. The building maintains a smoke‑free policy and allows one dog or cat per unit. Located directly on Cheesman Park, the setting delivers park-facing views, immediate access to walking paths, nearby cafés, restaurants, the Botanic Gardens and urban conveniences, creating a blend of historic character with neighborhood walkability.
