    Barnet Steinfeld was the original owner of this apartment building, filed in 1915 under permit NB 2370-1915 with plans by Louis Berger & Company. Three stories over a basement, its front of wire-cut brick laid in Flemish bond has five bays, two of them projecting, with pilasters rising through several stories and a pressed-metal cornice with swags and scrolled modillions. It begins the 1915 tenement row at 60-64 to 60-84 71st Avenue, one of about fifty tenements built in what is now the Central Ridgewood Historic District; the commission notes that those put up after 1910 lean more toward Arts and Crafts details.
