Samuel Greenstein has a two-family house built on the corner of Kelly and East 156th Streets
Architect John O. Hamilton designed this two-story house for Samuel Greenstein, and it went up in 1921 on a street George Johnson had developed back in 1899. Its stucco walls rest on a brick water table and are trimmed with brick quoins, band courses and framed openings. A single central door faces Kelly Street, and the Landmarks Preservation Commission's Longwood report praised the broad, low house as a fine addition to the corner.
