    1874 Cornelia Street opens a row of eight buildings stretching to 1896 Cornelia (also 854 Woodward Avenue), all built by G. X. Mathews in 1911 under permit NB 1315-11 and designed by Louis Allmendinger. The house keeps its bluestone stoop with its old railing, wooden basement screens and a tan-painted cornice with swags and cartouches. Later owners fitted through-wall air conditioners beneath two of the ground-floor windows and swapped in aluminum sash on every floor.
