Kitchen Makeover In Monticello Park
A kitchen in a historic 1939 home in Monticello Park, designed by architect Nathan Straus Nayfach, was modernized while preserving some of its original architectural elements. This kitchen remodeling project successfully modernized the kitchen area while maintaining the historical integrity and distinctive architectural features of the home.
