A pair of 3-story Greek-revival residential buildings completed together in 1842. Both houses are clad in red brick above stone basements, and retain their Greek Revival doorways with flanking pilasters and high entablatures. The deep roof cornice, with modillions and dentils at No. 57, has a finely detailed fascia board with attractive swirling motifs. The heavy sheetmetal cornices above the windows and the little corbels under the windowsills of No. 57 are later additions.
