    39-33 44th Street is built in 1926 as a type A' house in a Lincoln Court row

    No. 39-33 44th Street, finished in 1926, is the fourth house from the north in a row of 14 Lincoln Court houses on 44th Street, which the Landmarks Preservation Commission sorted into three plan types; this one is type A'. The row's trim included wood pilasters at enclosed entry porticos, and every house has a basement door beneath its porch or stoop. By 2007 the commission found the row's historic enclosed porches only at 39-27 and 39-45.

    By the time of the Landmarks Preservation Commission's 2007 designation report, the entry porch of 39-33 44th Street had been sheathed in vinyl siding and its openings altered, with one-over-one windows and snap-in grilles. The front windows were vinyl as well, a through-wall air conditioner projected near a first-floor window, and the front yard was edged with a high cobblestone curb. The basement had sliding windows and a metal railing.
