This two-family house belongs to the row at 60-43 to 60-89 68th Avenue, which Paul Stier built in 1909 to designs by Louis Berger & Company. It is the third and most common Stier model, with a more pronounced curved bay and a brownstone stoop with solid side walls; more than 200 were built between 1908 and 1912.
