    Built in 1926 as part of Washington Court, 39-56 46th Street still had its historic front door, behind a metal-and-glass storm door, in the Landmarks Preservation Commission's 2007 survey. Brick steps with cast-stone treads lead to it from a historic bluestone path, a metal awning shelters the entry, and the projecting bay has been clad in aluminum and painted white.
