    39-72 44th Street is built at the street end of a Madison Court North row facing a garden court

    39-72 44th Street, from 1927, is the house nearest the street in a row of eight Madison Court North houses set at right angles to 44th Street and facing a central garden court. The row's paired front doors sit under white elliptical fan panels framed by arched brick lintels with paired soldier-brick keystones. The house's three-bay side wall faces 44th Street, and the original wood lattice on a low brick wall still stands beside its back yard.
