28 Queen Street (Johnson's Row Tenement)Entry/Object ID
QUEEN.028.1Scope and Content
Constructed ca. 1802; renovated and restored 1940-50. The 3-story stuccoed brick dwellings retain their original second-story fenestration with three-bays each and a continuous belt course between the second and third stories. A continuous gable roof provides each tenement with two front dormers and two rear dormers and shelters two large chimneys. The arched openings on the ground story date to the original renovations of this row in the 1940s and 1950s. The westernmost tenement at 28 Queen Street retains its corner quoining and a wrought-iron balcony.
Three files contain documentation of the easement on the property and related correspondence including "preliminary interest" letter; Part I certification (National Register); easement appraisal report and IRS form 8283; newspaper article (1976 DYKYC); report by Robert P. Stockton "Johnson's Westernmost Tenement: A History" (March 2004); page from 1960 Preservation Progress with photograph.
The files may eventually contain annual inspection reports, requests for alterations, and correspondence related to the management of the property. See Easement Manager's working files for more information.
