This two-part commercial block building has simple geometric detailing typical of Early Twentieth Century Commercial buildings. The hard- fired red and multi-colored brick facade has two pairs of 1/1 double hung windows with raised brick header sills on the second story. The lintel is comprised of vertical brick stretchers. A large rectangular panel is above, formed by a raised course of brick headers. Centered within is a stone plaque with the name "ANDERSON". The cornice area has three courses of projecting bricks. The stepped parapet roof has stone coping. The storefront has a recessed centered entry front flanked by large display windows with brick bulkheads, steel lintels, and three large transom windows above. There is a secondary entry door to the upper level on the north. There is a vacant lot to the north, and the north side of the building has been covered with stucco.
