    No. 130 is one of the three houses Jacob G. Dyckman built in 1837. Its paneled door is framed by pilasters with Doric capitals under a transom, and the lintels are plain stone, unlike the little cornices over No. 128's windows. Low windows in the attic fascia survive, set off by a tongue-and-dart molding. The Landmarks Preservation Commission noted that the wrought-iron stoop and areaway railings enhance the row's architecture.

    “Stone lintels without cornices appear over the door and muntined windows of No. 130, whereas lintels with the original diminutive cornices surmount the door and muntined windows at No. 128.”
