The small street this house faces is Stier Place, which bears the name of Paul Stier, the builder who put the house up around 1911. Stier was the most prolific house builder in what is now the Central Ridgewood Historic District, responsible for roughly half of its row houses, and he became the largest single developer in Ridgewood.
“A small street in the historic district is named Stier Place.”

When the Landmarks Preservation Commission designated Central Ridgewood on December 9, 2014, its survey of 66-11 Stier Place recorded a wood-and-glass double-leaf door at the entrance that is possibly original, along with what may be the original basement windows and cast-iron railings. Later changes noted then included a painted stoop and a replaced door beneath the stoop.
