Listed in the landmarks report as 35-57-35-61 87th Street, this house ends one of the two four-house clusters of an eighteen-house row built in 1925 to C.F. McAvoy's designs for the Queensboro Corporation (permit NB 99-1925). The report says the four clusters are arranged A-B-B-A and each is laid out in mirror image, so that a cluster reads as one large building. The end houses' side walls are visible from the street.
