(c. 1870)

This Italianate two-part commercial block building has an intact second story cornice. A projecting metal lintel separates the storefront from the red brick second story, which has four tall, narrow, 1/1 double-hung windows. The windows have molded stone sills, and segmental arched label of molded stone with keystones. The elaborate cornice has a pedimented parapet with a honeycomb pattern tympanum centered in a projecting entablature with four large scrolled brackets and dentils. The c.1950s storefront has a deeply recessed, centered entry flanked by display windows with brick bulkheads. The transom area is above the storefront, but retains its cast iron pilasters. A historic cast iron column divides the storefront from a secondary entry door on the south end of the façade which leads to the second story. There is a fixed sash transom above.
