    39-67 44th Street is built in 1926 as one of six recessed porch houses in Lincoln Court

    This two-bay house, type A' in the Landmarks Preservation Commission's terms, was completed in 1926 near the center of a ten-house Lincoln Court row facing 44th Street. Like the five flat-roofed houses around it, it sits behind the street line with an enclosed porch at the entry. Its brickwork includes soldier courses at the base and over and under the second-floor windows, sills of projecting header brick, and a parapet trimmed in bluestone with stepped geometric patterns.

    “…brick soldier coursing above the foundation, and above and below the second-floor windows, projecting header sills…”

    The landmark survey of 2007 recorded that the front of 39-67 44th Street, block 155, lot 18, had been cleaned and repointed. Aluminum siding covered its enclosed porch, whose openings now held awning windows on the front and side, and aluminum one-over-one sash had replaced the original windows. A flagpole stood near a first-floor window, a mailbox hung by the door, and the yard had a scalloped cast concrete curb and assorted pavers.
