    Louis Berger & Company gives 59-32 69th Avenue two curved bays and a scrolled metal cornice

    Kilian Schurger was the original owner of 59-32, a two-family house filed in 1908 as part of new building application 2167. The Berger firm designed it in the Renaissance Revival style: a three-bay brick front with two curved bays, a bracketed lintel over the entrance, and limestone sills set on continuous rough-faced bandcourses. The original brownstone stoop and pressed-metal cornice remain; an aluminum awning and a utility meter came later.
