Each window has seven horizontal sections. There is no ornamentation on this story. The first story is comprised of storefront windows. The west section retains is original, curved glass recessed storefront which is surrounded by Carrara glass. The other two sections contain one large storefront with a central recessed entry that is not original to the building. A large signboard of aluminum siding separates the first and second stories. A modern metal awning spans the width of the building.
The retention of the materials and design of the second story, as well one-third of the storefront level elements qualifies this building as a contributing element to the District.
