This two-story house over a basement was filed by Paul Stier in 1907 under permit 200-1907 and designed by Louis Berger & Company in the Renaissance Revival style. It has two curved bays, a brownstone water table, and a pressed-metal entry lintel decorated with swags. Its stoop has since been rebuilt with new ironwork and its facade repointed.

The Landmarks Preservation Commission names the row at 60-11 to 60-43 71st Avenue as a typical example of the shallow-bay houses Stier built from 1907: two stories on raised basements, three bays wide, two of them in a shallow curved projection. Berger varied the brick colors and trim from row to row, while consistent cornice lines unified the rows.
