    No. 35-40 and No. 35-44 form a neo-Tudor double house by C.F. and D.E. McAvoy

    Nos. 35-40 and 35-44 were filed together under permit NB 445-1926 as one of seven double houses on the west side of 87th Street. The pairs alternate A-B-C-A-C-B-A, which makes this a "C" pair: hipped roofs with jerkin ends, front shed dormers, bracketed flower boxes and a segmental-headed door. The neo-Tudor homes have shingled roofs and drip moldings over the entrances, and side bay windows of wood on the first floor.
