Berger dresses 60-37 69th Avenue in tan iron-spot brick with a rounded two-story bay
The Renaissance Revival house rises two stories over a basement, its tan iron-spot brick set off by stringcourses of rough-faced gray brick, limestone sills and rough-faced limestone lintels. Its original metal cornice carries modillions, festoons and egg-and-dart molding. Since then a wrought-iron support has replaced a porch column, the porch piers have been stuccoed and the stoop and porch railings renewed.
