    Around 1908 Charles Grosch built this two-story brick house under permit NB 2530-1908, one of seven two-family row houses at 60-70 to 60-82 Catalpa Avenue designed by Louis Berger & Company. Its front has an angled bay rising the full height, a stone door hood on brackets with incised ornament, and a cornice trimmed with swags. When the row was surveyed for landmarking, this house was the one that still had its original front door, original windows on the upper floors and basement, and original basement grilles.
