Vertically arrayed pairs of square windows are inset in the brick infill of the thirteen bays of the long, channelside wall of the main story. The basement window bands are filled by corrugated metal panels with small, widely spaced inset windows and protruding vents. The main story windows of the shallow, downstream leg of the ell are entirely covered by corrugated metal. In contrast to the flush surfaces of the original constructiom and infill, a quadpartite, corbelled cornice finishes the wall.
