This two-story two-part commercial block has a modified aluminum storefront on the first floor and brick cladding with stone trim on the second story. The storefront has cast iron posts, a recessed central entry, and multi-light display windows with transoms. A modern post-and-beam storefront system spans the opening. The second story contains four tall single windows with non-historic multi-light single-hung sashes with fixed transoms. Peaked lintels cap each window. Stone bands span the façade between the windows at the sill and lintel levels. A denticulated terra cotta cornice and flat parapet cap the building. The rear (west) elevation is brick on the first story and stucco on the upper story. The second story retains its historic arched window openings.
