    Built around 1908 under new building application 1023 for Kilian Schurger, this house is among the 16 two-family houses at 59-05 through 59-35 put up together with a flats building at 59-03; 59-01 and 59-37 belonged to the same row but were filed separately. Louis Berger & Company drew the plans: orange iron-spot brick, a full-height rounded bay and limestone lintels carved with stylized leaves. Its historic front door and the gate under the stoop survive.
