Additional Comments
A two story brick building characterized by simple brickwork patterns at the cornice line and four segmental arch bays highlighted by window hoods. On the ground floor a new brick facade covers the original storefront area. Not present on 1889 Sanborn-Perris Map; present on 1897 map. A store occupied the structure in 1897. In 1908 a meat market operated by Julius Blasius was located in the building. According to Barland, this building was purchased for a labor temple in 1914.
