3-story Romanesque-revival residential building originally completed in 1863 as a stable. In 1887 the building was altered for James Boorman Johnston, brother of John Taylor Johnston, first President of the Metropolitan Museum. It has a wider center bay flanked by two narrower bays, and is clad in white-painted brick. The 2nd-story segmental-arched windows with corbeled lintels are the originals. The very high windows at the top floor were undoubtedly once segmental-arched and corbeled like those at the 2nd floor. Arched corbels support the attractive cornice, with brick modillions, dentils and toothing .
