The 2007 survey of 45-15 Skillman Avenue found its historic door surround still in place, but aluminum one-over-one windows throughout and the front window bay painted white. The rear porch had been filled in with brick at the first floor, with a brick wall at the second. A jalousie window with a grille lit the basement, an antenna stood on the roof, and a wood picket fence enclosed the back yard.
