    Ignatz Martin was the original owner of this Renaissance Revival two-family house, filed under new-building permit NB 2-1911 with plans by Louis Berger & Company. It is one of six two-family houses at 59-18 to 59-28 68th Road. Built of iron-spot brick with brownstone and limestone trim, it rises two stories over a basement behind a full-height rounded bay. The Landmarks Preservation Commission found its iron stoop railings, newel posts, front door and areaway fence still historic.
