    This two-family house went up around 1908 under the same building permit, NB 1952-1908, as its neighbor at 68-04, with Louis Berger & Company as architect and John and Engelbert Buser as owners. It is two stories over a basement, in brick with brownstone and limestone trim, a rounded bay and a festooned metal cornice. The Landmarks Preservation Commission later recorded its original stoop, now painted, and its historic iron areaway fence and gate.
