39-24 45th Street rises in 1926 as a mirror-plan house in Lincoln Court
Built in 1926, this two-story house belongs to Lincoln Court in Sunnyside Gardens. Counting from the south end, it is the fourth of nine row houses on the west side of 45th Street, a group that combines flat-roofed houses with gabled ones in five plans. The Commission classes it as Type A-prime, the mirror layout it shares with 39-20.

2007
Single-pane vinyl sliders fill every window at 39-24 45th Street by 2007
The 2007 designation report for Sunnyside Gardens found that all of this house's window openings held single-pane vinyl sliders. Its porch had been enclosed with brick, a brown metal awning hung over the door, and grilles guarded the basement window and door. Through-wall air-conditioners with conduit projected at both the first and second floors, while the brick stoop had cast-stone treads and metal railing.
