"The Cypress Realty Building (ca. 1928) is a small one-story structure of stucco. A wood and glass entry door is recessed at the left (north) side of the facade. A display window appears to be a later addition. Above the window and door are six small rectangular designs raised in relief. This tiny building contributes to the character of the historic district. It was constructed soon after the 1927 fire, and has apparently always housed commercial activities. A dress shop was the first tenant; later a gift shop moved in. Although the building is the smallest contributor, with a facade less than fifteen feet across, it has the parapet and stucco siding that characterize so many other buildings in the district. It also retains its original recessed entryway. Although the display window appears to date from about 1950, the overall architectural integrity remains high." (visit link)
