Philip Siegel is the owner of the new tenement at 60-62 Second Avenue, filed in 1899 and designed by architect Michael Bernstein. It rises six stories above a basement and has an entrance framed with granite columns under a modillioned hood, plus decorated terra-cotta window surrounds. The stoop and cornice were later removed, and in 1958 the main entrance was moved down to the basement level.
