    This row house went up in 1931 for Selective Homes Inc. under permit NB 2169-31, designed by Monda & Bertolazzi. With 115-89 it shares a five-sided vestibule with triangular-arched openings, and it has a broad gambrel-shaped half-timbered parapet gable, a design used for four pairs on the street. Its vestibule panel is stucco set with checkerboard brick, the front door still has an iron strap hinge, and the chimney it shares with 115-85 has its south side trimmed in stucco and brick diaperwork.
