| Only two short years after completing this notable row of homes in 1888-89, architect William B. Tuthill found himself the fortunate recipient of the commission to design Carnegie Hall, quite unusual for a relatively unknown member of the profession. For these homes, his design is a conservative version of Renaissance carvings and stained glass. The high stoop entrances have immense newel posts and many turns, exceeded in their majesty by those on the homes across the street. | |
