The NRHP Nomination Form contains the following verbiage to describe this contributing building's significance:

The one-story concrete block at the corner of SE Jackson and SE Douglas is a good example of a vernacular commercial with its diagonally-set entryway and simple fenestration. The building has a flat roof.

Early tenants of this building included Hall's Jewelry and the Sewing Machine Center in 1955-56. The structure now houses the Cafe Espresso.

This courthouse is Inventory #14 on page 20 of the NRHP Nomination Form and was erected in 1953. Today, this building is still home to the Daily Grind Cafe and Espresso.
