    Julius Gregory designed this two-and-a-half-story house for William H. Brown, a broker in real estate who was also secretary-treasurer of the Manhattan firm Robert E. Hill, Inc., and it was built in 1929. Its wood frame is faced in rough-cut fieldstone and pigmented stucco under intersecting slate gables with flaring eaves. Gabled dormers, leaded-glass steel casements and a massive stone chimney give it its Medieval Revival character, and the landmarks commission called it remarkably intact.
