Additional Comments
Bracketed metal cornice with triangular shaped pediment over the central bay and large brackets at trends. Round with decorative panel in the blind arch; flat stone, arched window heads on remaining windows with incised floral ornament, projecting cornice with bracketed ends and dentil trim over the store front; long-narrow one over one windows, transom window over altered store front.

Not a significant structure but important to the architectural character of the commercial area because it has retrained its elaborate detailing on the upper story.

#690: 1884 Photo gallery; 2nd floor, doctor's office.
