    Filed under new-building permit NB 3614-1909, this three-story brick and stone building, addressed 60-97 71st Avenue, held shops below apartments. Landmarks researchers could not identify its first owner, but they credit the design to Louis Berger & Company because it matches the firm's adjoining row on the block. A cast-iron column, swagged pressed-metal cornice and steel-hatch cellar doors on Fresh Pond Road survive, while a side entrance on Fresh Pond Road has been bricked in.
