    A marble-based shopfront at 80-21 survives from Ravenna Court's original stores

    Ravenna Court was built with shops along its 37th Avenue front, turning one bay onto 80th and 81st streets. Nearly all have been rebuilt, but one historic storefront remains at 80-21 37th Avenue, with a marble bulkhead and a recessed door between show windows; the metal basement doors in the sidewalk may also be original. Other changes include lost roof tiles and new doors and windows.
