No. 116-28 is one of 50 two-story row houses that St. Albans Lawns Inc. put up along 227th Street in 1931 to designs by Andrew A. Marjey. It is the paired type with a diapered brick vestibule and a gabled second-story oriel, and keeps its curved brick step, slate vestibule roof and parapet, and a stucco chimney shared with No. 116-30. Later owners replaced the leaded diamond-pane front window and covered the oriel's stucco and timbering with siding.
