The landmarks report finds this house alone in its stone row with an unglazed door panel
This is the easternmost of five Westchester stone Italianate houses, Nos. 21-21 to 21-29, that Root and Rust built in 1871-72, matched by five more across the avenue. The houses have double front doors, and by the 1968 designation the middle panels of the other four had been glazed. Only No. 21-29 still kept its raised panel there, along with its stoop, cornice and balustrades.
“The middle sections have been glazed with the exception of Number 21-29 which retains its raised panel.”
