(c. 1870; altered c. 1890’s)

This Italianate two-part commercial block building has two storefronts and a unified second story treatment. The red brick has three main divisions to the second story façade, each with three 1/1 double-hung windows. Over each storefront, the windows have simple flat stone sills and lintels. The central window in the center bay, however, has a semi-circular arched crown with keystone. Above each group of three windows, a rectangular decorative panel of diagonally placed stone blocks form a tapestry area. The elaborate overhanging metal cornice has large brackets emphasizing the three main divisions of the building, with smaller brackets in between. The double-wide brick building has two storefronts on the first level, with a central secondary entry leading to the upper story. The storefronts have centered recessed entries flanked by display windows. The display windows on the south have low granite kickplates and a stucco transom area above. The display windows on the north have brick kickplates and an awning covering the transom area.
