Description: "Murray Hill Historic District consists of two groups of buildings, encompassing seventy-one rowhouses, three apartment buildings, an architectural office, and a church, that are located between East 35th and East 38th Streets, from Park Avenue to Lexington Avenue [Manhattan, New York].  Together, these buildings form a significant reminder of Murray Hill's history as one of the city's premier residential districts.  Largely constructed between 1853 and 1910, the houses in this district reflect the history of New York City rowhouse design"--P. 4.
