An iron-spot brick two-family house with a Greek key door hood rises on 68th Road
The Landmarks Preservation Commission dated this two-family house only to between about 1904 and 1914 and could not determine its builder or first owner. It is built of iron-spot brick trimmed with brownstone and limestone, with a full-height rounded bay, flush stone lintels incised with stylized leaves and a classical door hood decorated with a Greek key. Its modillioned cornice with egg-and-dart molding and festoons survives, while the stoop has been resurfaced and its newel posts removed.
