The six-story-and-basement West Gate at 35-51 to 35-55 82nd Street was built in 1937 for the 82-83 St. Corp. under permit NB 616-1937, with a nearly identical East Gate filed the same year behind it on 83rd Street. Architects Miller & Goldhammer gave it a recessed entrance court that splits the front in two, and neo-Tudor trim: Tudor-arch doorways, carved quatrefoils, peaked gables and random stone quoins, along with period corner windows and stepped parapets.
