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

Built for Cecil and Carl Black, the one-story storefront with entrances on Jackson and Main Streets was built of manufactured stone, probably by F.F. (Pat) Patterson. The storefront consists of a central door bay flanked by two large window bays. A small cornice runs the width of both exterior walls of the building. This cornice, together with a garland below it, is a characteristic feature of other Patterson buildings in Roseburg.

Cecil and Carl Black operated a sandwich shop here in the 1940s and 50s, the first of its kind in Roseburg. It has served as a restaurant for many years.

This building is Inventory #160 on page 76 of the NRHP Nomination Form and was erected in 1915. Today, this building is empty and available for rent.
