    No. 941 forms a semi-detached pair with No. 939, part of a row of eight two-family houses that W.C. Dickerson designed for developer George F. Johnson in 1897. By the 1980 landmark designation the original front doors of No. 941 had been replaced, though the rest of the pair's design survived.

    “The original front doors at No. 941 have been replaced, but the remainder of the design of these semi-detached houses is intact.”
