    This house gets a garage in the rear of its basement

    Built to Benjamin Dreisler, Jr.'s 1926 design, this house has a garage at the rear of its basement, like every house in its 46-house group. Shared driveways, entered at both ends of the blockfront, run into the middle of the block to reach the garages. The houses face the street behind front gardens.
