Date of Construction: c.1880

This brick two-part commercial block has a rectangular footprint. Historic stucco covers the front facade wall. The first-story storefront features a wood- and steel-framed plate glass window system that rests on stucco-covered brick bulkheads. The display windows flank the storefront's recessed entrance. Adjacent to the storefront, the entrance to the second floor occupies the south end bay. Corrugated metal covers the storefront's transom window. Second-story fenestration defines the five bays and includes single one-over-one light, double-hung wood windows. Additional character-defining features include a recessed rectangular panel across the full width of the building at cornice level, a mosaic tile entrance floor, and a historic paneled wood door and screen door.

Although corrugated metal covers the storefront transom window opening, this alteration is easily reversible and the building retains sufficient architectural integrity to convey its historic associations. It is a contributing element to the historic district.
