    No. 34-24 and No. 34-28 were filed together under permit NB 15216-1926 and built in 1927 for the Jackson Heights Apartment Corporation. Like the rest of Rogers & Haneman's ten-house group, the house evokes an English country cottage with tapestry brick, a steep slate roof with dormers and a chimney, and a projecting entrance porch with flared sides. Its side facade, which is visible from the street, resembles the front.

    “The style of the houses is inspired by the picturesque cottages of the English countryside.”
