The architect Thomas W. Lamb won awards for his Egyptian Revival restoration, which maintained the building's distinctive Art Deco facade with its intricate ornamentation and geometric patterns. The lobby is a sight to behold with its many impressive architectural details, including marble floors, ornate plaster moldings, and stained glass windows. Residents of the Pythian Condominium enjoy an array of amenities, including a full-time doorman, concierge services, a spacious laundry room, a fitness center, and a children's playroom.
