    Part of the 1927 Harrison Place row on 49th Street, 39-18 is a type I house with a flat roof behind a brick parapet. The 2007 landmark survey found a historic wood entrance porch on wood posts and a historic door with a storm door still at the front. Other features had changed: a replacement metal bay projects at the first floor, and brick walls now hold raised planting beds in the front yard.
