    In 1893 the firm of Thom & Wilson designed No. 115 for the estate of S. R. Jacobs. The Landmarks Preservation Commission report calls it a striking late Romanesque Revival building. Stubby columns carry the lintel block above the entrance, the top-story windows are arched, and the roof cornice on vertical brackets steps up at the center.
