    St. Albans Lawns Inc., the Wolosoff Brothers' company, completed No. 116-14 in 1931 from plans by Andrew A. Marjey. It is paired with No. 116-16 behind a shared brick vestibule and has a second-floor oriel under a peaked gable. The Landmarks Preservation Commission found that siding had replaced or hidden the oriel's stucco and half-timbering and that the leaded first-floor window was gone, though the wood finial atop the oriel survived.
