No. 751 opens a run of seven pairs of two-family houses on the west side of Beck Street that Dickerson designed and that were built for George F. Johnson & Sons in 1900. With its partner at 753 it repeats the design of 724-726 across the street, with limestone quoins at the doors, arched second-story windows, a swag-frieze cornice and a false mansard front topped by polygonal peaks.
