Built in 1979-80 under permit NB 26-1979 for owner William Fried, this two-story house on the corner of West 246th Street was designed by architect Harry Meltzer. It is clad in stained vertical wood siding, with large single-pane windows, a triangular second-floor window and a roof broken into three slopes, and it carries no applied ornament. The Landmarks Preservation Commission cited it as a representative example of late-twentieth-century modern design.
