    Louis Berger & Company drew the plans for this two-family house, built in 1911 for Jacob Erbach under permit NB 3860-1911. It still has its original rough-faced brownstone stoop with cast-iron newel posts and railings, which continue at the steps to the areaway, and its basement windows are historic. The side wall to the north is finished in cement stucco.
