The last of the three Warner apartment houses on Bedford Street, No. 89 adjoins four similar five-story buildings on Barrow Street (Nos. 62-68). Warner designed the whole group in 1889 for the estate of Letitia A. Poillon as a single large composition. On the Barrow side, four identical doorways with low stoops and brownstone porches, plus one continuous roof cornice, tie the facades together.
“They were designed in 1889 as a single monumental unit by the architect Samuel A. Warner for the estate of Letitia A. Poillon.”
