No. 721 and its partner No. 719 were drawn in 1900 by W. C. Dickerson for George F. Johnson, the developer who built up nearly all of the Longwood district. The landmarks report of 1980 calls the pair identical to Nos. 724-726 on the opposite side of the street, a design built around three-sided bays topped by polygonal roofs and second-floor windows set under round arches. The house is a two-family residence of two and a half stories.
