No. 44-76 is built as one of five matching bow-fronted houses on 23rd Street
No. 44-76 is part of a row of five two-story houses with full basements, numbered 44-70 through 44-78 on 23rd Street, completed in 1887. When the Landmarks Preservation Commission surveyed the row for its 1968 report, the stoops, cornices, lintels, doors and windows were all still original. The sheet-metal cornice carries an acanthus scroll and an egg-and-dart band, and the iron stoop railings have ornamental scrolls between widely spaced spindles.
