    Silver Street, home of 60-75, is renamed 68th Road in the 1925 Queens renumbering

    Paul Stier built this three-story two-family house around 1909 on a street then called Silver Street. In 1925 the Board of Aldermen renamed most streets in the Ridgewood area, carrying out a numbering plan for Queens begun in 1911 under Borough President Maurice E. Connolly to end duplicate street names left over from the 1898 consolidation. Silver Street became 68th Road.
