The Real Estate Record and Guide noted in July 1907 that Louis Berger & Co. had filed plans for two two-story brick houses on Stockholm Street, 325 feet west of Woodward Avenue. The owner was F.W. Amend, a Ridgewood man who lived nearby on Onderdonk Avenue. The pair, of which this is one, were the first Berger-designed row houses in what became the historic district; one of them had a passage leading to a stable at the back of the lot.

1946
The house's original carriage passage is closed in and turned into living space
Number 1861 was built with a carriage passageway through to the rear of its lot. In 1946 that passage was enclosed and converted into residential space, one of the major alterations the Landmarks Preservation Commission recorded in the district. The Commission otherwise judged the district one of the most intact blocks in Ridgewood.
