    37-41 78th Street is finished in Flemish-bond red brick with neo-Georgian trim

    Built in 1926-27 to designs by Benjamin Dreisler, Jr., 37-41 78th Street shares the neo-Georgian vocabulary of its forty-six-house group: red brick laid in Flemish bond, fanlights over the doors, terra-cotta rosettes and scallop shells, and multi-pane double-hung sash. Across the group, the tiled roofs are pitched and broken by gables, chimneys and shed dormers, and the porches are either pitched-roof or sheltered by umbrella hoods.
