39-82 46th Street rises as the first flat-roofed house in from the south end of its row
Built in 1926 for Washington Court, No. 39-82 is the third of eleven row houses on this stretch of 46th Street and the southernmost of the six flat-roofed houses that sit back from the street between the row's gabled ends. Like most of its neighbors it has a basement door tucked under its porch or stoop. Its front lawn is part of a grass strip that runs almost unbroken along the row, split only by concrete walks and a few fences.
“The buildings have under porch or under stoop basement entries, except for 39-84 and 39-86 46th Street. The grassy front yard is mostly continuous…”
