128 West Jackson Street Commercial Building 221-5010-0012 NCB
"This ca. 1959, Modern Commercial-style three-story, three-bay, masonry building rests on a foundation of unknown
materials. The building is constructed of brick laid in a stretcher bond pattern. Located at the rear northwest corner
is a small stretcher bond brick tower with a flat roof and casement windows. The flat roof is covered with standing
seam metal and has slightly overhanging eaves. A “cornice” of corrugated metal spans the south façade top. The
building’s slightly recessed brick stringcourses are the only exterior ornament found on the façade. The slightly
recessed central entrance consists of double leaf metal and glass commercial doors flanked by canted plate glass
storefront openings with ceramic tile surrounds. The second- and third-story openings are triple metal hopper
windows with stone surrounds. Attached to the rear of the building is a two-story, concrete block and stretcher bond
brick, side-gable addition with a large engaged brick flue. Located on the north elevation addition wall is a large bay
opening for truck deliveries; to the east of that is a single-leaf wood paneled door."
