The corner building's plain 48th Street front gives way to a stair tower on the garden side
This Monroe Court building has a nine-bay front on 48th Street (43-04 and 43-08), and its north side is the 43rd Avenue face numbered 47-18. The street wall is plain, trimmed with soldier-course brick and triangular brick corbels at the roofline. On the garden side a stair tower rises a little above the roof and still holds historic six-over-six wood windows, while a ramp with an old iron rail leads to a basement door.
