1966
Corwin, Atkin & Associates build a modern house reached by a bridge for William Fried

Designed by the firm Corwin, Atkin & Associates for owner William Fried, this one-story house went up in 1965-66, after the Fieldston Property Owners Association had loosened its rules favoring traditional styles. Built against a steep slope and partly held up by concrete columns, it is entered across a bridge of concrete and wood that also leads to the carport. Low shingled gables and vertical board siding mark it as Mid-Twentieth-Century Modern.

In 2003 the house gained a rear deck and side stairs, built for owner Jesse Sigelman to designs by architect Hal Dorfman. The Landmarks Preservation Commission listed these as the major alterations when it described the house in its Fieldston Historic District report, and still found the 1960s house largely intact.
