    No. 761 belongs to a run of seven pairs of two-family houses on the west side of Beck Street between East 156th Street and Longwood Avenue, all designed by Warren C. Dickerson and built in 1900 for the developers George F. Johnson & Sons. It forms a pair with No. 759. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's 1980 report says this pair repeats the design Dickerson used at Nos. 716-718 Beck Street.
