    Built around 1908 under the same permit as its neighbor 60-57 (NB 2879-1908), this two-family house is part of Paul Stier's 22-building row designed by Louis Berger & Company. It has a full-height curved bay, a pedimented stone door hood and rough-faced brick inset panels. Its stoop has since been altered with cast stone treads and brick, but the gate under the stoop is original and the front door may be historic.
