Designation report places No. 21-37 in a 15-house Root & Rust row
Built by the developers Root & Rust in the early 1870s, No. 21-37 is a three-story brick Italianate house with a stuccoed basement. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's 1968 report describes it as one of five matching houses that, with two other Root & Rust rows, form an unbroken line of 15, and notes it still had its bracketed roof cornice and original cast-iron stoop newels and handrails.
“Together with the others, they create a continuous row of 15 houses.”
