The house is one of forty-six attached and semi-detached houses that the J.H. Kleinman Construction Corp. put up in 1926-27 on the blockfronts of 78th and 79th Streets between 37th and Roosevelt Avenues. Benjamin Dreisler, Jr. designed the group as two-and-a-half-story houses in what the Landmarks Preservation Commission calls the Anglo-American Garden Home style. This house and its five neighbors from 37-16 to 37-24 were filed together under one new-building permit, NB 9211-1926.
