In the Landmarks commission's 2014 profile, 60-27 kept its original cornice and gray brick stringcourses, but its stoop had been altered, with risers and treads refaced and newel posts removed. Wrought-iron supports had replaced the porch columns, and the brick pier at the east end of the basement had been made narrower. An address plaque, mailbox and light fixture had been added by the main entrance.
