Built in 1927, this house stands second from the north in the row running from 40-10 to 40-30 44th Street, one of its middle houses. The backs of these houses were built with paired two-story open porches; by the 2007 Sunnyside Gardens designation, this one's first-floor porch had been filled in with brick and given steps. Like 40-10, it has no basement entry, and the Landmarks Preservation Commission recorded a through-wall air conditioner and an enlarged window opening at the basement, grilles over every window and an aluminum-clad front bay.
“40-12 44th Street 182 110 G' ... grilles at all windows; no entry, thru-wall ac unit, enlarged window opening ... brick infill & steps at 1st floor of porch…”
