    Paul Stier has a curved-bay two-family house built here to plans by Louis Berger & Company

    This two-story Renaissance Revival house on a raised basement dates to about 1909, filed under new-building permit 1918 of that year with Ridgewood developer Paul Stier as its first owner. Louis Berger & Company gave it a full-height rounded bay, brick spandrel panels in a contrasting color, a projecting metal cornice with festoons, and a stone door hood crowned by a carved triangular pediment. The original masonry stoop survives, though the front door is a later replacement.
