    This Renaissance Revival two-family house went up around 1911 under permit NB 5-1911 for builder Ignatz Martin, with Louis Berger & Company as architects. Its design pairs a full-height rounded bay with rough stone courses linking the windows and a molded stone door hood on brackets. By the time of the commission's survey the stoop had been partly rebuilt in brick and stone with an iron railing, and the original main door had been swapped for one with a sidelight and transom.
