Spanish Eclectic

This two-story two-part commercial block has modified storefronts on the first story and single windows in the buff brick walls of the second story. Second-story windows are multi-light metal casement windows with arched transoms. Decorative sconces attach to the center of ornate terra cotta panels flanking the windows. Spiral terra cotta tiles surround the arched window openings. Pent clay tile roofs with wood brackets span the facades above the second story on the north and east elevations of this corner building. Aluminum and brick storefront materials and configurations are not historic. The rear elevation is painted brick.
