    Each house on the block gets its own garage, reached by one shared driveway behind the rows

    Built in 1927 for the Queensboro Corporation to Robert Tappan's designs, this house is part of a block plan in which the 84th and 85th Street houses back onto each other. Paired garages, one for every house, stand at the rear of the lots, all served by a single common driveway, and each house has a front garden.

    “Paired garages (one per house) are located at the rear and reached by a common driveway. All the houses have front gardens.”
