39-86 46th Street is built as the gabled south end of an eleven-house Washington Court row
No. 39-86 went up in 1926 as the southern end of a Washington Court row of eleven houses on 46th Street. It and No. 39-84 carry slate-covered gable roofs with the eaves toward the street, matching the two gabled houses near the row's north end, while six flat-roofed houses between them step back. Unlike most of the row, these two southern houses have no basement door under the porch or stoop.
“The slate shingled, gable roofs of the first, second, ninth and tenth buildings are eaves front... except for 39-84 and 39-86 46th Street.”
