    Jacob Erbach commissioned this two-story Renaissance Revival two-family house in 1911 under permit NB 3860-1911, with Louis Berger & Company as architect. The front has four bays, three of them curving outward, banded limestone sills and a pressed-metal cornice with swags and scrolled modillions. The same year Erbach and the Berger firm also built the three-story, ten-bay apartment building at 59-05 70th Avenue, on the corner.
