A brick row house with curving wrought-iron railings goes up in 1887
No. 21-30 is part of a group of six two-story brick houses with basements, Nos. 21-22 to 21-32, built in 1887 when 45th Avenue was still Twelfth Street in Long Island City. The row has deep wooden cornices on four Neo-Grec brackets. The 1968 designation report counted this house among four in the row that still had their original curvilinear wrought-iron handrails at the stoop and areaway.
“Numbers 21-22, 21-24, 21-26 and 21-30 have their handsome original curvilinear design and wrought iron handrails at the stoop and areaway railings.”
