Paul Stier built this Renaissance Revival two-family house around 1908, one of the row from 60-02 to 60-48 filed under new-building permit 349 and designed by Louis Berger & Company. Two stories over a basement, it has a curved full-height bay, wood brickmold framing the first- and second-story windows and an egg-and-dart cornice. The porch roof has since been sheathed in sheet metal, and a house-number plaque hangs beside the main door.

Stier's two-family houses hold a five-room flat downstairs and six rooms above
Most houses in the Central Ridgewood district are two or three stories high and about 20 feet across. In most of them a five-room apartment fills the first floor and six-room apartments occupy the floors above, each with its own full kitchen and bathroom. Reusing this small set of plans let Stier and Berger complete houses at great speed.
