No. 37-58 closes the southern end of Dreisler's 79th Street blockfront
No. 37-58 79th Street is the last house in the five-house cluster that Benjamin Dreisler Jr. designed at the southern end of the blockfront, filed under permit NB 11921-1926. Because it is an end house, its side wall can be seen from the street, and a driveway at the end of the blockfront leads back into the block interior, where each house has a basement garage.
“The side facades of the end houses are visible from the street.”
