    By 2014, 60-24's porch rests on a granite floor with security cameras over the door

    The commission's 2014 profile of 60-24 found the bay, porch roof and original cornice in place but most of the porch rebuilt, with a granite floor, brick piers, new metal railings and a new center column. Part of the porch roof had been covered in sheet metal. Two security cameras had been mounted above the main entrance, and the areaway held a brick-edged planting bed and new granite steps.

    “…granite porch floor; non-historic infill at porch base between non-historic brick piers; mailbox by and two security cameras above main entrance…”
