No. 35 is one of the four houses that lumber merchant George W. Allen built on the north side of St. Marks Place, completed in 1905-06 to designs by Samuel R. Brick Jr. It originally had a full-width colonnaded porch with balustrades below and on its roof, and a broad gable fronted by paired gabled extensions.

No. 35 is clad in aluminum siding but keeps its angled bay and bluestone path
Read more
No. 35 has changed more than its neighbors: horizontal aluminum siding now covers its shingles, the porch was rebuilt with square wood columns and lost its rooftop balustrade, and its gable windows were altered and all sash replaced. It still has its angled first-story bay and its historic bluestone sidewalk and path to the porch.
“No. 35 also retains its historic bluestone sidewalk and bluestone path leading to the porch.”

Irish-born Margaret Teanney lives at No. 35 with her four grown children
In 1910 the house was home to a patent lawyer and his wife. By 1925 it was occupied by Margaret Teanney, born in Ireland, and her four adult children, who worked as a housekeeper, two clerks and a dressmaker. The owner of No. 35 also holds a separate lot running through to Carroll Place, and the house is still a one-family dwelling.
“…in 1925 by Irish-born Margaret Teanney and her four adult children: a housekeeper, two clerks, and a dressmaker.”
