    Laburnum Court is finished in red brick and white stone in the neo-Georgian style

    Like most of George H. Wells's Jackson Heights complexes, Laburnum Court is neo-Georgian. Its red brick walls are laid in Flemish bond over a stone water table, with stone and brick entrance porticoes carrying iron balconies, arched windows on the fifth floor, and bracketed cornices with balustrades along the roof. Iron-railed concrete steps and walks lead through the courtyards. By 1993 the entrance doors had been replaced and chain-link fences put up in the courts.
