    Paul Stier built this two-family house around 1908, filing it under new-building permit 1769 of that year with Louis Berger & Company as architects. Two stories over a basement, it has a full-height curved bay, a pedimented stone door hood with incised ornament, inset panels of rough-faced brick and a cornice decorated with egg-and-dart, consoles and swags. Its second-story windows were given wood brickmold frames, and the Landmarks Commission's survey found historic windows, fitted with storm windows, still in place there. At the rear, the parged brick wall with its curved bay keeps a historic wood balcony.
