This two-part commercial block building has two storefronts, and a unified second story with design elements typical of the Early Twentieth Century Commercial era. The building is clad with white terra cotta tiles, and features four pairs of 3/3 double-hung windows with projecting sills and lintels. Above is a rectangular panel formed by raised terra cotta tiles featuring three small medallions at each end, with an additional medallion flanking the panel. The stepped parapet edge has molded terra cotta coping. There are two storefronts at the ground level, each with a recessed entry at either end and display windows with ceramic tile kickplates. The enframing piers for the storefront have granite tile bases.
