Additional Information:This two-story building has two altered storefronts which now exhibit orange brick and reduced display windows. The second-story window openings are segmentally-arched but have been reduced in size and set with one-over-one windows. The pressed metal cornice is partially boarded. The only decorative feature is the row of semi-circular arched openings on the first floor of the side elevation.
