Crockery dealer John B. Walton built 395 in 1852-53 as the middle house of his row at 393 through 397, four-story brick houses in a simple Italianate style. The corner house at 399 was also his at the time. No. 395 keeps a roof cornice on console brackets and handsome paneled double doors, and the ground-floor stores of the row were later altered for apartments.
“Nos. 393 and 395 retain their roof cornices supported by console brackets, and their handsome paneled double doors.”
