    39-20 47th Street is built in 1925 as a gabled type A' house in Hamilton Court

    No. 39-20 is a 1925 type A' house in Hamilton Court with a one-over-one window in its third-floor cross gable. Its porch is now filled with modern brick, though its historic wood cornice survives, and it holds a door, a window, a mailbox, a flagpole and a light. The second-floor terrace has a modern door, a rigid metal awning and a metal railing. Out front, a low brick wall with piers and cast-stone finials stands before a planting bed raised behind a bluestone wall.
