"A green vitrolite false front is the facade of a one-story rectangular wood-frame store front addition with a gable roof. It is attached to the front of a one-story woodframe hipped-roof residence which dates from the 1880's. An aluminum canopy projects slightly over the diagonally-recessed storefront display window, supporting the lower case letters of the word "flowers". The house is rectangular in plan with numerous bays and additions. Both buildings are sheathed in horizontal wood siding. A one-story greenhouse with gable roof was added on the east side of the flower shop in 1954." (
