    60-39 69th Avenue uses orange iron-spot brick where its neighbor uses tan

    Berger faced this Renaissance Revival house in orange iron-spot brick, with rough-faced gray brick stringcourses, brick piers under the porch, limestone sills and rough-faced limestone lintels below a modillioned cornice with festoons. The stoop newel posts have since been removed, the porch columns swapped for wrought-iron supports, the space under the porch filled in, and a satellite dish added on the roof.
