Four-bay house with a door at each end illustrates Sunnyside's type O row house
The Landmarks Commission's catalogue of Sunnyside house types uses a photograph of 47-09 43rd Avenue from about 1940 to show type O. It is a four-bay row house with an entrance at either end of the ground floor, two six-over-six wood windows between them and three windows above. The doors had paneled wood surrounds with bracketed hoods or enclosed wood-and-glass porticos, and since the design is symmetrical it has no mirror-image version.

Paved front yard and rear shed addition change 47-09 43rd Avenue by 2007
The district survey found this double-entry house, numbered 47-09 and 47-09A, with its whole front yard paved in concrete behind a chain-link fence. Its door hoods had been clad in aluminum with asphalt-shingle roofs, the porch at the west entry had been extended, and grilles covered the first-floor windows. At the back, vinyl siding covered the wall and a one-story glazed addition with a shed roof had been built.
