5-story Italianate residential building completed in 1860. Designed by Isaac F. Duckworth as a store-and-loft building, it is clad in rusticated marble, with six bays of windows terminating in round-arches at the 3rd and 5th floors. The building is crowned by a bracketed and modillioned black iron roof cornice. The cornice has been cut at the west end to accommodate a black iron fire escape that fronts the three western bays. The exposed eastern wall is clad in plain red brick.

Alexanders Hardware Buyers Market occupied the building from the 1950s until it was recently converted to residential use. The ground floor is occupied by Kristin Hanson jewelry.
