    In its Sunnyside Gardens district report, the Landmarks Preservation Commission described 39-04 as the northern end of a row of seven brick houses, with a three-bay side wall turned toward 39th Avenue. On that side a two-story porch survives, its ground floor still closed in with the old wood-and-glass infill and a door upstairs opening onto a terrace. Unlike most houses in the row, it has no basement entrance beneath its porch or stoop, and on that side its old four-over-four and six-over-six sash have given way to one-over-one windows.
