    No. 960 is built as half of the more elaborate central pair in a Dickerson group on East 156th Street

    No. 960 East 156th Street and its twin at No. 958 make up the middle pair of three that Warren C. Dickerson designed for George F. Johnson & Sons in 1899. Set over basements with high stoops and angular bays, they have entrances of double wood-and-glass doors with transoms beneath stone swan's-neck pediments. The Longwood report found the same design at Nos. 761-763 Dawson Street.
