    Built around 1908 by Kilian Schurger to designs by Louis Berger & Company, 59-31 is one of the 16 two-family houses he raised between 59-05 and 59-35 under new building application 1023. The Renaissance Revival house has a full-height rounded bay of orange iron-spot brick and a cornice decorated with festoons and egg-and-dart moldings. It keeps a historic primary door, as well as its iron stoop railings, newel posts and areaway gate.
