    Around 1908 Kilian Schurger put up 59-29 under new building application 1023, one of 16 two-family houses from 59-05 to 59-35 plus a flats building at 59-03. The Berger firm faced it in orange iron-spot brick with brownstone and limestone, gave it a rounded bay rising the full height, and incised stylized foliage into the limestone door hood and window lintels. Its iron areaway fence, gate posts and gate are historic.
