    This house goes up in a brick row of seven closing the south side of a Jefferson Court garden

    Built in 1926, the house sits in a row of seven two-story houses of three designs that forms the southern arm of a U around a central garden court. The row is trimmed with soldier-course brick, projecting corner pilasters, corbels and faceted brick colonettes at the parapets, with bluestone coping on the flat roofs. This house, a type F, historically had a three-bay rear facade facing the service driveway.
