The 1/1 windows have semi-circular arches, with stone lugsills and molded arched window crowns with a small medallion at the apex. Above each window in the cornice area is a decorative recessed panel with curved ends; there are corbelled brick rows above. The roof edge has tile coping. The first story has a recessed secondary entry leading to the second story with fixed sash glass transom above. The storefront has a centered recessed entry, flanked by display windows that have vertical wood kickplates. The transom area is closed down with wood panels and covered with a cloth awning. The storefront is enframed by rusticated stone piers.
