Very unusual pattern. Note use of strong grain.

Prospect-Lefferts Gardens Historic District 1905
There were no corner blocks. The pattern was taken around the corners. Inner mahogany blocks are 2" square. The pattern border is 6" wide. It is surrounded with 1" oak, 1/2" mahogany, and 1-1/2" oak. Inner field is diagonal fingerblock with 2" slats in a 12" square.

Park Slope 1892
The field parquet is 8-3/4" of five 1-3/4" strips. I have no idea what all the woods are (besides the obvious mahogany and maple). See
measured drawing.

Lefferts Manor 1909
Quite the enhancement over the following ones. This has two ribbons running through a chain. I think this is too much for this design. The following are better.

Ditmas Park West circa 1925
Like the others the inner pattern is 4" wide, surrounded by 1/2" maple, 1/2" mahogany, 1" oak, 1-1/2" mahogany, and 2" oak. Inner field is diagonal fingerblock with 1-3/8" and 1-1/4" strips in a 12" square.

Prospect Park South Historic District 1903
Inner pattern border is 4" wide, with 1/2" maple and mahogany alongside. The 4" is evenly divided into the walnut and oak bands. Pattern repeat is 8". I prefer this corner without the corner block. Inner field is 1-1/2" slats diagonally.

Park Slope 1894
A neo-Renaissance built by Jeremiah Gilligan. From a listing when it was on the market in 2010. My guess at its
measurements. The diagonal parquet appears to be 10" squares of 2" strips. The irregular hexagon and Isosceles trapezoid between the flowers are 6" from point to point, and 4" on the sides. This is
No. 2394 in the 1903 and 1908 E.L. Roberts catalogs. The corner is slightly different. The band of cherry running through the middle of the border is also between the maple squares in the corner. I would have it both ways. Their way where it meets a border. The way here for the sides not adjacent to a border. Or even better: No bordered corner block, but
have the border pattern continue around the corner. The catalog has 8" wide. I came up with 7-1/2". It is listed as oak, maple, and cherry.

This front hall has this lovely inner field of concentric rectangles:

First is the JP Morgan Chase octagon logo (the cross-section of an early Manhattan wooden water-pipe).

Center square is 2". Border width is three times that and repeat is four times that.

Midwood Park 1907-1908
Center square is 2". Border width is three times that and repeat is four times that. Note that not all circles here are true folds. When correct the woods alternate as you go around a circle. As seen here, in the outer circles, but not the inner two.
