    Around 1909 Frank Richert and Andrew Weissenberger had Louis Berger & Company design this house and its twin at 68-28 under one permit, NB 599-1909. Faced in iron-spot brick with limestone, it has a full-height rounded bay, a bracketed door hood and flush lintels carved with stylized leaves, and a modillioned cornice with festoons and dentils. When the Landmarks Preservation Commission surveyed it, its historic iron stoop railings, newel posts and areaway fence were still in place.
