Building Date: c. 1910
Style: LATE 19TH AND EARLY 20TH CENTURY AMERICAN MOVEMENTS: Commercial Style
Functional Use/Type COMMERCE: Two-Part Commercial Block

This three-story, brick commercial building is on a corner lot. The south facade has three bays, and the east elevation has eight bays. It is a simple, early twentieth century, symmetrical design. The two vertical muntins in the upper sash of the windows on the second and third stories reflect craftsman influences. The windows have slight segmental arch openings and stone sills; the storefront appears to be the original. Display windows flank a recessed entry. The south end bay of the 7th Street elevation repeats the storefront treatment. The first-story fenestration includes transoms.

This building has a high degree of integrity and is representative of an early twentieth century, commercial, retail service building.
