This five-story walk-up is one of the six Hampton Court buildings on 78th Street, filed for construction in 1919 and finished by 1921 for the Jackson Heights Apartment Corporation. Architect George H. Wells grouped eleven buildings on 78th and 79th streets around a shared interior garden, reached today through passages at the end of each row. The 78th Street fronts have six bays, with the middle four pushed slightly forward and an off-center doorway.
