1899
No. 751 is built as the partner of No. 749 in George Johnson's Kelly Street row
No. 751 is part of the west side of Kelly Street, which Warren C. Dickerson designed in 1899 for George Johnson as seven pairs of semi-detached houses. With No. 749 it repeats the design of Nos. 733-735 on the same row: the pattern of Nos. 750-752 across the street, raised higher over basements that sit above ground, with steep stoops climbing to doorways that combine carved pediments with angular pilasters.
“Nos. 733-735 have the same design as the residences at Nos. 750-752 Kelly Street but are taller, with raised, rather than sunken, basements.”
