This two-story brick house over a basement went up around 1911 under New Building permit 1355-1911, with Paul Stier as original owner and Louis Berger & Company as architect. The Renaissance Revival front has a full-height rounded bay, molded stone lintels on the first story only and a bracketed metal cornice with festoons. Its stoop has since been rebuilt in brick and stone, and the door replaced within a tile surround.

Louis Berger, architect of more than 5,000 local buildings, designs the house
The plans came from Louis Berger, born in the Rheinpfalz in 1875, who emigrated as a child in 1880 and made Ridgewood his home from 1892. He studied at Pratt Institute, apprenticed with Carrere & Hastings and opened his own Bushwick office in 1895, specializing in tenement houses and the laws that governed them. He was architect of record on more than 5,000 Ridgewood and Bushwick buildings dated 1895 to 1930, and served as president of the Brooklyn Society of Architects.
“Berger was known to have been the architect of record for over 5,000 buildings in Ridgewood and Bushwick between 1895 and 1930.”
