    40-05 48th Street went up in 1926 as a type A row house facing one of Jefferson Court's garden courts. By the time of the landmarks survey, its front porch had been filled in with fixed windows under an asphalt-shingle roof and a grille covered a first-floor window. At the rear, a concrete deck with brick stairs and a low brick wall around planting beds had been added.
