Peter Larsen, a builder from Norway who came to Staten Island in 1902 and started a construction business in 1904, built No. 14 and three neighbors at 18, 22 and 26 St. Marks Place in 1918-19, acting as his own architect. The lots had been part of the Escoriaza estate. Larsen was the first builder on the island to develop tracts of a hundred or more houses; this group was one of his small projects.
“These houses were developed in 1918-19 by Peter Larsen (1879-?), a major builder on Staten Island in the early twentieth century.”
