39-57 is built in 1927 among six gabled houses at the center of a Roosevelt Court row
Built in 1927 in Roosevelt Court, 39-57 is part of a row of ten two-story houses running from 39-51 to 39-69 47th Street, drawn in three designs and their mirror images. It belongs to the six houses in the middle, 39-55 to 39-65, which stand back from the street line under slate-shingled roofs with their eaves facing 47th Street. Every house in the row has a basement door under its porch or front steps, reached by concrete steps between low walls.
