Ignatz Martin built 60-29 around 1906 to plans by Louis Berger & Company, giving it the keystoned stone lintels, round-headed second-story windows, dentil course and bracketed cornice seen on its neighbors. Later owners applied flat stone diamonds to the brick beneath the first-story windows, lined the stairs and areaway with stone balustrades and faced the water table in decorative stone. The entrance now has a wood-and-glass door with two sidelights and a transom.
“…flat stone diamond shapes applied to brick below 1st story windows; stone balustrade on stairs and areaway…”
