The Pavilion Hotel's stables, which stood on this curving site, come down around 1942
Before No. 28 and its two neighbors were built, the Carroll Place frontage here, which curves for about 225 feet, was taken up by the stables of the Pavilion Hotel. The Landmarks Preservation Commission dates their demolition to about 1942. The Staten Island Historical Society keeps a photograph of the stables in its New Brighton file, labeled 24-30 Carroll Place.

Staten Island architect Frank A. Vaccaro designed No. 28 and its neighbors at 26 and 30 for developers Ralph Lucchese and Steve Hantowitz, and the three went up in 1987. No. 28 is the one-family house in the middle, with a garage at its base, and it projects a little ahead of the mirror-image houses on either side so the row reads as one larger building. Gabled bays clad in fish-scale and lapped shingles echo the Queen Anne and Shingle styles.
