This is a 2-story, red brick commercial block. It features a remodeled storefront, with plate glass store windows and an inset entrance. Original (or early) transoms might remain behind cover-up materials, which mask the area. A limestone stringcourse separates the first and second floors with a limestone lintel likely present behind the transom area cover-up materials. This use of limestone for a lintel and stringcourse would repeat the same use of these materials as at the Masonic Lodge Block and commercial building directly to the east of this building. The second floor at 128 features four bays, each with foreshortened, 1/1 double-hung sash with limestone hoodmolds and sills. The hoodmolds repeat the design of those at the other two properties already mentioned. A simple, brickworked frieze and cornice with dentils caps this building.
