5-story Italiante-style mercantile building completed in 1868. It is clad in white marble, with full window enframements on the upper floors, with corbelled feet and cornices. A green-painted metal fire escape runs down the left two-thirds of the facade, which is capped by a green metal roof cornice with modillions, dentils and end brackets.

Over the years, the building was occupied by a variety of commercial interests ranging from makers of women’s hats and pocketbooks in the mid-to-late nineteenth century to drug wholesalers, toy manufacturers, and electrical and hardware suppliers in the twentieth century. The building remains in commercial use.
