Andrew A. Marjey drew No. 116-16 for St. Albans Lawns Inc., which built it in 1931 as one half of a pair with No. 116-14. Its leaded-glass transoms with colored diamonds survive above the front window, whose lower four sashes were replaced. Siding now covers or replaces the stucco and half-timbering on its upstairs oriel, the wooden finial is gone, and a television antenna sits on the roof. It shares a rear garage with No. 116-18.
