Washington Court's western corner house rises in 1926 facing 45th Street, its parapet topped by finials
This house anchors the west end of the eight-house row that Washington Court in Sunnyside Gardens presents to Skillman Avenue, a row the Landmarks Preservation Commission dates to 1926. Like its partner at the east end, it is set back from the avenue and turned to face 45th Street, where it is numbered 39-89 to 39-93. It has a flat roof, and cast-stone finials stand at the corners of its parapet.
“The flat roof end buildings are recessed from the streetwall and set perpendicular to the row, facing 45th (45-01 Skillman Avenue)…”
