    The Plymouth Houses, this one among them, were designed in 1928 by Pierce Kiesewetter, one of three architects who built rows of houses in the district at the close of the 1920s, alongside Benjamin Dreisler Jr. and James D. Junge. Kiesewetter divided the fifteen houses facing each of 84th and 83rd streets into three groups of five and drew mainly on Tudor sources, marked by half-timbering.
