No. 39-23 closes its Hamilton Court row turned sideways toward a through-block path
No. 39-23 46th Street is the twelfth and southernmost house in a row of twelve two-story homes on the east side of the street in Hamilton Court. Where the other houses in the row face the street, this flat-roofed house sits farther back and is rotated ninety degrees, so its front looks south onto the path that cuts through the block. Its north wall serves as the rear.
“The flat roof, southernmost (twelfth) building is farther recessed and set perpendicular to the row, facing the through-block path.”
