This brick two-family house, two stories over a basement, was built about 1908 for Paul Stier from plans by Louis Berger & Company under permit NB 349-1908. It has a curved bay rising its full height, a porch across the front, rough-faced stone lintels, inset panels of rough-faced brick, wood brick moldings at the first-floor windows, and a cornice with egg-and-dart, consoles and swags. Its row, 60-02 to 60-54 69th Avenue, is one of three adjacent 1908 Stier rows given full-width open porches, a model Berger also used in the nearby Stockholm Street Historic District.

Landmarks report finds the house's original porch, stoop and door still in place
The December 2014 designation report rated this house's porch as original, with its old wood railing on the west side topped by a metal rail that may also be historic. The stoop and the main door were original too. Newer changes included infill between the painted brick piers under the porch, a house-number plaque and light by the entrance, a removed areaway gate and wiring on the facade.
