    Built in 1931 under plans filed by Monda & Bertolazzi, this house closes the north end of the west row and pairs with No. 115-62 behind a shared five-sided vestibule. Its side elevation along 115th Road is red Flemish-bond brick dotted with stone blocks, topped by a tiled parapet with two gables. A prominent corner chimney carries a stucco panel and patterned brick, and a one-story brick garage with a hipped parapet is attached at the northwest corner.

    “At the northwest corner, there is a second brick chimney with stone accent blocks and an attached one-story brick garage with a hipped parapet.”

    The landmarks report names this house's altered window opening as the street's one substantive change

    When the Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the 46-house Cambria Heights-222nd Street Historic District in 2022, it found the street remarkably intact, with many houses still keeping wood batten doors and colored diamond-pane windows. Its report noted that, apart from a change to one first-story window opening here at No. 115-60, the facades had seen no substantive alterations in nearly a century.
