As a unit, they are one of the few surviving Queen Anne rows in the city. They are also handsome domestic work by the notable firm Hubert, Pirsson & Co., and remain largely intact.","narrative":"Six brick rowhouses at 146-156 East 89th Street in Manhattan's Yorkville neighborhood form an intact Queen Anne row built in 1886-87. Designed by the architectural firm Hubert, Pirsson & Co., each house is three stories high with stone and terra-cotta trim and an imbricated slate mansard roof pierced by dormers. Details include Tudor roses, sunflowers, multi-paneled wood doors, and sheetmetal cornices decorated with swags and wreaths. The designs differ from house to house, yet repeated patterns pair Nos. 148 and 154 and Nos. 152 and 156. No. 146 is wider and has a partial setback forming an L-shaped plan. The row was meant to hold ten houses but was never completed. The group reflects the middle-class housing built on the side streets after the Third Avenue elevated railroad reached the area in 1878, and it is one of the few surviving Queen Anne rows in the city. The houses remain single-family homes with little alteration.","period_of_significance":"1800-1899","architect_builder":"Hubert, Pirsson & Co.","architectural_style":"Queen Anne","criteria":[],"status_note":"Occupied and still used as single-family dwellings; described as unaltered and in good condition.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:50:43.347884-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/82003378.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82003378/2992c0149e-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/82003378/2992c0149e-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Americasroof","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nyc-146e89.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Americasroof</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nyc-146e89.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75319624","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/146%E2%80%93156_East_89th_Street","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q17994856"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/manhattan/houses-at-146-156-east-89th-street-82003378/"}
