    This two-family house went up in 1909 for builder Kilian Schurger, one of a group on permit NB 1818-1909, from plans by Louis Berger & Company. Its four-bay Renaissance Revival front has three bays in a curved projection, limestone sills running in bands across the curve, and a rough-faced brownstone stoop. Landmarks surveyors found the stoop and the front areaway still edged with their original wrought-iron railings and cast-iron newel posts.
