They are located at 137 East Jackson Street in Commercial Building 221-5010-0006 CB that is a contributing building to the Gate City Historic District.
This ca. 1930, Commercial-style two-story, two-bay, masonry building rests on a foundation of unknown materials.
The building is constructed of brick laid in a Flemish bond pattern. The low-pitched front-gable roof is covered with
standing seam metal and has slightly overhanging eaves, a boxed cornice; there is a rectangular louvered vent in
the front gable. The south-facing façade has been remodeled and is covered with coursed permastone veneer on
the first story and T-111 siding on the second story. A shed roof canvas awning spans the front of the building. The
slightly inset entrance consists of a single-leaf glass and metal commercial door. To the east of the entrance is a canted-bay window with 1/1 wood sash. There are two rear additions on the north elevation. The first is a two-story brick gable-side addition; attached to this is a one-story brick, flat roof addition.
