"This two-story building is of brick construction. A stepped parapet with a bracketed cornice caps the stuccoed front elevation. Below it are two second-story wood-frame box windows, added ca. 1915. Each has a shallow hipped roof, exposed purlins, and two front-facing one-over-one windows framed by narrow smooth pilasters with plain capitals. A balustrade with curved balusters connects the windows. They rest on a platform, also supported by purlins, that acts as an awning for the right half of the first story. Centered on the first floor is a narrow, elliptically arched doorway. On its right is a storefront topped by a fabric awning that swings in and out. The storefront has a glass-paneled door, flanking display window, and clerestory band above. On the left is a continuation of the storefront on the building on the left, which has two large windows with a rock facing below. Except for this alteration, the building looks much as it did fifty years ago and contributes to the historic character of the district." (
