    Warren C. Dickerson designed No. 749 in 1899 for George Johnson, as one of seven semi-detached pairs lining the west side of Kelly Street. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's report says Nos. 749-751 match Nos. 733-735, which share the design of Nos. 750-752 opposite but stand taller on raised basements, reached by steep stoops to doors framed by carved pediments and angular pilasters.
