This vintage photo of the Brooklyn Heights residential building at 153 Joralemon Street from 1953 1926 reveals that little has changed in 85+ years, save for the current bodega on the ground level. The five-story walk-up was built in 1900, according to Streeteasy, and currently comprises eight units. It also boasts a common roofdeck.
