(vacant)
c. 1880 according to Sanborn Maps (however, stylistically the building appears to date to c. 1900, perhaps a refacing although this is not evident)
Chicago Style influence.

Rectangular plan, three stories, brick walls. Central recessed modern entrance door with transom. Large single storefront sash and slight angle to door; brick bulkheads painted off-white. Transom area above the doors is painted off-white and has header trim unpainted above. Projecting aluminum awning across from the building from the south shields this storefront as well. The second and third stories are divided into three bays. Stone lug sills and a continuous soldier course flat arch frame the windows. Chicago style windows (large fixed sash framed by narrow 1/1 double hung sash) with transoms are in the center bays. Single 1/1 double hung sash with transoms are in the end bays. A header pattern is at the parapet base. Smooth stone cornice; stone coping. The north elevation is substantially longer that the east/South Ohio Avenue facade. The first story fenestration, placed at the top of the first story level, is boarded, but the recession of the opening has been maintained. Stone lug sills and triple rowlock segmental brick arches. The storefront from the east facade wraps one bay to this north elevation. At the rear/west of this elevation is a secondary entrance with a broad storefront sash and a multi-light painted transom. A single light door with painted transom and paneled door with a taller transom (presumably to the upper stories) compose this bay. A light well at this rear entrance is protected by an iron railing with "nail-like" projections. Three other light wells for this north elevation have been infilled. Eight I/I segmentally arched sash with triple rowlock segmental brick arches are on the second story. Four like sash are to the left/east of the third story, then brick work divides the panes (two single light fixed sash, as opposed to 1/1 double hung sash) on the remaining bays; a short single fixed sash is between the last two bays of this story. Stepped parapet; tile coping.
