59-18 Catalpa Avenue goes up in a 1909 row of Paul Stier's most common house type
The row from 59-02 to 59-38 Catalpa Avenue, finished in 1909, is one of the Landmarks Preservation Commission's examples of the house type Paul Stier built most often, with more than 200 erected between 1908 and 1912. These houses push out pronounced bay projections, stand two or three stories on raised or full-height basements, and were given rough-faced brownstone stoops. Architect Louis Berger varied the brick colors and ornament from row to row.
“Examples include 60-55 to 60-99 69th Avenue (1908), 60-57 to 60-99 70th Avenue (1908), 59-02 to 59-38 Catalpa Avenue (1909)…”
