Building Date: 1870
Style: LATE VICTORIAN: Italianate
Functional Use/Type COMMERCE: Two-Part Commercial Block

This three-story, three-bay, symmetrical painted brick building exhibits Italianate ornamentation above its remodeled storefront. A c.1930 alteration changed the original storefront configuration to a deeply recessed entry flanked by display windows. A temporary panel runs above the storefront openings to the sills of the second-story windows, covering the transom area. The two-over-two light, segmental arched, double-hung sash windows have segmental arched window hoods. The third story windows have a full arch and the arched window hoods have keystones. The building terminates with a paneled entablature, elaborate brackets, corbelling, and a projecting molded cornice.

With the exception of some minor storefront alterations, the building retains a high degree of integrity and is a contributing element to the District.
