    Kilian Schurger's 1908 house at 59-06 69th Avenue has cast-iron newel posts on its historic stoop

    Louis Berger & Company drew the plans for this two-family house, built in 1908 for Kilian Schurger under new building application 2458. Its historic stoop of rough-faced brownstone carries cast-iron newel posts and wrought-iron railings, and the brick front is set out in three bays, two of them curved, under a pressed-metal cornice with scrolled modillions and swags. Later owners added an aluminum awning, an address plate and a through-wall box for an air conditioner.
