    No. 39-77 belongs to Jefferson Court, the 1927 section of Sunnyside Gardens where the houses face inward onto a garden court. The Landmarks Preservation Commission found the historic door surround and hood intact, the hood's little roof painted white, with vinyl one-over-one windows elsewhere on the front and some bluestone pavers in the front yard. The rear has a white-painted foundation and a widened doorway opening onto a concrete deck with steps, a metal rail and a vinyl awning, and a skylight sits on the roof.
