This two-story, buff brick building has four bays. The building's shaped parapet has a stone cap. A simple, terra-cotta stringcourse molding runs the width of the facade. Under the stringcourse are four, double-hung sash windows with one-over-one lights that appear to be original. A course of stacked bond brick encircles the bank of windows. A continuous stone sill runs the width of the building below the windows. Wood panels cover the transom area. A modern aluminum and glass storefront follows the original configuration. A modern awning spans the entire facade.

The original architectural elements retained are sufficient to communicate the building's original design, feelings and associations. It retains its location, setting, materials and workmanship.
