    A flat-roofed type I' house opens the middle six of the Madison Court South row

    Built in 1927, this is the first of the six flat-roofed houses in the center of the Madison Court South row on 43rd Street, set between gable-roofed pairs at either end, and it follows the plan the report calls type I'. Its roofline is a plain parapet capped with cast-stone coping. Unlike the two end houses to its north, it has a basement entry below the stoop. The row's front yards were laid out as two grass plots on either side of a stone path, though this one's path has since been altered and more paving added.
