Description from the Bronx Survey:

No. 478 Grand Concourse is a two and one half story brick structure with a slate gable roof. The faceted front bay, tall chimney rising from the second floor balcony and projecting windowed gable resting on stone corbels are details that place this house in the vernacular Queen Anne tradition.

Neither the architect nor the date of construction is known for this structure,
