NOTES
Additional Information:This two story Queen Anne commercial building was built in 1885. The storefront has been covered with stucco, a masonry half-wall, and small square windows with molded stucco trim. The upper story retains its 3-sided oriel window form with original decorative metal cresting, although the windows all appear to be replacement double hungs. The uppermost portion of the facade consists of a false front parapet with scrolled brackets. The central portion contains a gable with original scalloped frieze boards and molding.
