Additional Comments

This two story Twentieth Century Commercial building is constructed of red bricks and accented in stone. The parapet roofline is capped with stone and a stone carved shield accents its center. Other stone details include square rosettes and a carved band above the windows of the second floor. The second floor windows are nine over one light double hung sashes. The first floor storefront has been remodeled and combined with its neighbor to the west. It features vertical board siding, a tall stone-veneer apron, and a small modern picture window.
