    This house begins a row of seven built in 1926 that forms the southern arm of a U-shaped group around a garden court in Sunnyside Gardens. The row's flat-roofed houses have patterned brick parapets with corbels and faceted colonettes, projecting bays and bluestone coping. In its 2007 report the Landmarks Preservation Commission noted that this house still has its historic enclosed porch.
