4-story Italianate residential building completed in 1850 as one of a set of three rowhouses. It was first partially converted to commercial use in 1898 with the installation of storefronts at the first two stories. Oppenheim's, a cloak and suit business, was one early commercial tenant. Further storefront alterations were made in 1904, and in 1909 the Hygrade Lunch Company added restaurant facilities. The fire escape and fire door were added in 1920-21 while the building was in use as a factory.

Today, it is once again residential, with the ground floor occupied by Ridgeway Diner.
