No. 34-19 was filed under a single 1928 permit with its four cluster-mates, Nos. 34-15 to 34-25. Kiesewetter varied the facades with alternating roof shapes, porches and projecting bays: the outer clusters on each blockfront mirror each other in an a-b-c-d-e and e-d-c-b-a sequence, while the middle cluster is nearly symmetrical, giving variety inside a single overall plan.
