1926
35-22 87th Street rises as one of seven neo-Tudor double houses by C.F. & D.E. McAvoy
Designed by C.F. & D.E. McAvoy and finished in 1926, No. 35-22 and No. 35-24 form one of seven pairs on 87th Street's west side. The group borrows from the neo-Tudor style, with steep shingled roofs, half-timbering, drip moldings over the doors and bracketed flower boxes. When the district was designated, nearly all the original six-over-six wood windows survived behind storm sash, along with paneled doors glazed in the upper part.
