    In the survey behind the 2007 Sunnyside Gardens designation, the Landmarks Preservation Commission listed this house as a type B row house in the Madison Court North row. Its tripartite front bay was clad in aluminum, with single-pane windows flanking a one-over-one sash, and a planter box sat at the stoop railing. At the back it kept a historic wood basement door with a storm door and pipe rail, while sliding doors had been fitted on the first floor; the yard was paved in concrete and had a wood picket fence.
