    Stier and Berger's fast building methods shape the 1909 row that includes this house

    This house belongs to the 1909 row at 60-51 to 60-89 68th Road. The Landmarks report says Stier and architect Louis Berger built quickly by reusing a few floor plans and facade designs, and that arches in the brick party walls seem to have been left open during construction so workers could pass from house to house without using the stoops. Most Stier houses are about 20 feet wide, with a five-room apartment on the first floor and six rooms on each floor above.
