Outside, a gated forecourt and high stoop make a dramatic first impression from the quintessential tree-lined street. 145 East 89th Street is one of six individually landmarked Queen Anne homes that once stood among a row of ten such houses. The residences were designed by the notable firm of Hubert, Pirsson & Co.

The row is beautifully executed with rich brick, ornate ironwork, and stone and terra-cotta trim. An array of carved plaques runs along the windows, while the distinctive slate mansard roof is adorned with pedimented dormers.
