    48-03 39th Avenue is built in 1928 as the second of a row's two flat-roofed houses

    48-03 went up in 1928 as part of Harrison Place, a row of eight two-story houses on 39th Avenue east of 48th Street. It is a type B house, the mirror image of its type B' neighbor 48-01, and the two share flat roofs, a setback from the streetwall, and decorative parapets with checkerboard brickwork. The pitched slate roofs start next door at 48-05.
