A trio of 2.5-story Greek-revival residential buildings completed together in 1837. The houses are their original height with brownstone basements and low attic windows in the fascia of the cornice. The paneled'doors are flanked by fine paneled pilasters with'Doric capitals, supporting a handsome transom bar which in turn is surmounted by a transom. Stone lintels without cornices appear over the door and muntined windows of No. 130, whereas lintels with the original diminutive cornices surmount the door and windows at No. 128. The lintels at No. 126 were stuccoed over at a later date. In the attic at Nos. 130 and 128, the low Greek Revival windows, cut into the fascia board, have been retained. These windows are separated from the cornice by a fine tongue and dart molding. A similarly designed molding serves as a sill for the attic windows. The top floor of No. 126 has been remodeled to provide a continuous window.
