    45-08 is one of two houses in its Washington Court row with small four-over-four center windows at the back

    The six two-story-plus-attic houses at 45-04 to 45-18 39th Avenue went up in 1926 as part of Washington Court in Sunnyside Gardens. At the rear, 45-08 has three bays, with six-over-six windows in the first two and a door in the last on both floors, and it shares with 45-14 a smaller four-over-four sash in the middle bay. Its historically open two-story back porch, in the bay with the doors, has been enclosed.
