47-19 39th Avenue closes its 1928 Harrison Place row as a recessed, flat-roofed corner house
Built in 1928, this type G house is the last of ten row houses on the north side of 39th Avenue between 47th and 48th Streets. Like 47-01 and 47-03 at the row's other end, it has a flat roof and sits slightly back from the streetwall, with a bluestone-coped parapet worked in scalloped, stepped, zigzag and soldier-course brick patterns. Its two-story rear porch, originally open, had been enclosed by the time the Landmarks Preservation Commission described the row.
“The first two and last, flat roof buildings, 47-01, 47-03 and 47-19 39th Avenue, are slightly recessed from the streetwall and have bluestone coping…”
