NOTES
Additional Information:An iron-crested oriel window accents the facade of this two story commercial building. Other detailings--such as the cornice and pedimented window lintel--show hints of classical derivation. The modificaitons to the storefront have seriously compromised this building's original architectural integrity. It does, however, contribute to the significance of the district despite these modifictions because of its scale and second story detailing.
