Almost 50 buildings within the Willoughby-Hart Historic District, including nearly all the houses on the north side of Hart Street, were designed by the architect Isaac D. Reynolds, who worked primarily in the popular neo-Grec style, creating a cohesive uniformity on these blocks.All the homes were built within a 20-year timeframe beginning in 1871, during a time when the area that would become Bedford-Stuyvesant was transitioning rapidly from farmland to dense residential development after newly expanded transportation options strengthened Brooklyn's connection to Manhattan."
