This house and its partner at 35-56 87th Street were filed together as permit NB 449-1926, one of seven double houses along 87th Street's west side from 35th Avenue to 37th Avenue. The architects were the brothers C.F. & D.E. McAvoy, and the owners of record were the Queensboro Corporation and James McDougall. The houses have steep shingled roofs, drip moldings over the entrances and, on some models, half-timbering, with brick garages behind them roofed in slate to match.
