An 1891 remodeling included the removal of the original first-floor cast-iron storefronts and the addition of new, projecting first-floor front running across the length of the original building. The renovations also included construction of a four-story Romanesque north wing of rugged quarry-faced granite, which originally abutted the neighboring Patriots and Slocum buildings.
