    A two-story Stier row house goes up on 68th Road around 1909

    Built about 1909 as one of ten two-family houses in Paul Stier's group at 60-50 to 60-70 68th Road, this two-story-over-basement house has a pedimented stone door hood, panels of rough-faced brick and a cornice with consoles and swags. Its original front door survives, but later owners tiled the stoop steps and the front areaway, fixed awnings over both entrances and replaced the stoop's vent grille with a letter slot. At the rear, a curved bay carries a historic wooden balcony.

    “…tiles on stoop steps; fixed awnings over basement and main entrances…”
