    One of the 50 St. Albans Lawns row houses of 1931, No. 116-38 is paired with No. 116-40 under a shared brick vestibule with a flared hipped roof, and has a half-timbered oriel with a three-part window above. The Landmarks Preservation Commission found that it kept its ground-floor wood window of eight leaded-glass sashes with colored diamond panes and its slate-shingled vestibule roof and parapet. The front door had been replaced and a storm door, awning and mailbox added. Its rear garage is shared with No. 116-36.
