My Commentary
The first floor fenestration consists of a central recessed entryway. The entry has dual metal and glass doors with a transom above and glass pane sidelights flanking each side. The entry juts out so that there is a recessed display case flanking and a double pane display case running perpendicular to the sidewalk, again flanking each side. The panes are separated by vertical metal mullions. On the left, the display case is a double pane separated by vertical metal mullions; on the right, a single pane.
The upper story fenestration is white stone blocks with brown stone blocks on the left side No cornice is visible. The building has a flat roof.
