    34-42 88th Street is built as a "b" house in Varrone's mirrored six-house cluster

    C.L. Varrone designed the row of seventeen two-story houses on this blockfront, built in 1925-26 for the developers Burnetti & Corrizzi; this house was filed in 1925 under permit NB 19442 with the other five houses from 34-38 to 34-50. In the cluster's a-b-c-c-b-a pattern it is a "b" house, between the hipped-roof end unit and the two "c" houses with bracketed window hoods. The red brick front has a projecting entrance porch and a Spanish tile roof.
