    Paul Stier was the original owner of this two-family house, the last of a three-house row (60-16 to 60-20 68th Road) filed as NB 1132-1909 with designs by Louis Berger & Company. The Renaissance Revival front has a full-height curved bay, stained-glass transoms over the first-story windows, inset panels of rough-faced brick, and a cornice ornamented with consoles, egg-and-dart and floral motifs. Over time the stoop walls were painted, its steps were tiled, and a fixed awning went up over the entrance.
