If the Kitchener looks like it was shoe-horned into its lot, that's because it was. The space was previously occupied by a 2½-storey house in the style of its neighbours to either side. The apartment block was built c. 1914 and first appears, fully tenanted, in the 1915 City Directory.
The building was named for Lord Kitchener, about whom you can read
here — yes,
this Lord Kitchener.
