    This three-story flats building belongs to the row from 59-11 to 59-25 71st Avenue, all built in 1910 under permit NB 1287-1910. The Landmarks Preservation Commission recorded its primary door, basement windows, cast-iron posts and wrought-iron fence and gate as original, along with a brownstone stoop with lions' faces. Later changes were limited to paint on the stoop and water table, wall lamps beside the door and new upper-story windows.
