    45-12 mirrors its neighbor as a Type A' house, with a picture window set into its front porch

    Built in 1926 in Washington Court, 45-12 is the mirror-image A' plan of the house next door at 45-10. The Landmarks Preservation Commission's survey noted wood siding on the front porch around a picture window with multi-light snap-in grids, an antenna on the roof, and a brick and concrete cheek wall enclosing a raised planting bed. The back has no porch; one ground-floor opening was enlarged for a door under a column-supported metal awning, and the yard holds a wood deck, a metal fence and a wood lattice fence.
