"1896.
A two-story, two-part commercial building which is located on the southwest comer of the square at the intersection of Court Square and Aid Avenue. The building's two storefronts appear to date to the mid-twentieth century. #47 has black rectangular metal panels below the display windows. Metal panels above the awning cover the building's transom windows. The four equally-spaced second floor windows have early or original 1/2 double-hung sash and projecting brick arched tops. Centered above the second floor windows raised letters are laid into the brick to spell "I.O.0.F." A wide cast iron cornice with dentils is painted black and runs the width of the facade. Below this applied cornice, a pattern of inset rectangular panels is laid into the brick. The side (east) elevation has six double-hung windows on the second floor. These windows have mix of 1/2 and 2/2 sashes. There is a door that leads to the second floor IOOF hall, towards this rear of the building on the side elevation."
