No. 21-28 belongs to a row of six brick houses from 1887, Nos. 21-22 to 21-32, each two stories high over a basement. The row shares stone stoops, plain lintels and deep wood cornices carried on four Neo-Grec brackets.

The landmarks report finds a concrete-block stoop beneath the original door
When the Hunters Point Historic District was designated in 1968, the Landmarks Preservation Commission found that No. 21-28 still had its original front door and ironwork. Its stoop, though, was made of concrete block, unlike the stone stoops kept by most of the row of six.
