Robert Tappan designed this brick house in 1927 for the Queensboro Corporation, filed on one permit with 34-11, 34-15 and 34-21 84th Street. Its block of 32 houses on 84th and 85th streets is laid out as eight back-to-back groups of four, with every house getting a front garden and one of the paired garages behind, all reached by a common driveway. The garages share the houses' slate roofs and neo-Georgian style.
“Paired garages (one per house) are located at the rear and reached by a common driveway. All the houses have front gardens.”
