    Tappan's row gets paired rear garages and a landscaped shared block interior

    Built in 1925 as the end house of a six-house cluster, this home sits back-to-back with C.L. Varrone's 1925-26 group at 34-14 to 34-50 88th Street. The two groups share a block plan with landscaped open space in the middle, and every house has a front garden. The paired garages behind the houses have slate roofs like the homes, and the report says they appear to have been lengthened over time for bigger cars.
