Louis Berger & Company gives 66-15 Stier Place a blonde-brick curved bay for Paul Stier
Paul Stier built this two-story house around 1911 under permit NB 1723, from designs by Louis Berger & Company. Its Renaissance Revival front is blonde brick, with a curved projecting bay, brick spandrel panels, a bracketed stone hood above the entrance and a denticulated bracketed cornice. Its south side wall, partly visible, is parged brick; by 2014 the stoop had been painted and the door and windows replaced.

The house rises as Ridgewood ranks among the city's fastest-growing sections
Between 1906 and 1911 Ridgewood was counted among the fastest-growing parts of New York City. Much of the newcomer population was German or of German descent, moving out of crowded, run-down housing on Manhattan's East Side and in Williamsburg for the new, affordable and healthier homes that Ridgewood's builders offered, among them Paul Stier, who put up this house.
