    No. 39-24 46th Street (block 154, lot 69) is listed as a type A row house in the commission's survey of Washington Court. Its historic front door survives behind a storm door, along with historic casements in the enclosed porch, though the porch is now covered in aluminum siding and the main windows are aluminum-clad one-over-one sash. A historic bluestone path runs down to the basement beside a raised brick planting bed.

In all 138 speakers favored the district and 27 opposed it, including the Sunnyside Gardens Coalition and the Institute for Justice.
