A 1927 Jefferson Court house on the garden court later gains a slate-roofed picture window
No. 39-75 is a Jefferson Court row house of 1927 with its front on the block's interior garden court. Its historic door surround and hood survive, but the Landmarks Preservation Commission found that a projecting picture window between casements, capped by a small slate-shingled roof, had taken the place of the original paired six-over-six sash on the first floor. Single panes fill the other openings, and some bluestone pavers lie in the front yard. At the rear the commission noted a wood deck, and on the roof three skylights and an off-white coated chimney.
