150-foot, 12-story Renaissance-revival office building completed in 1908. Designed by Neville & Bagge as a store-and-loft building for Charles Brogan, the facade is five bays wide. It has a 2-story base with rusticated stone piers which terminate in oval medallions. An entrance is located at each end bay; the western entrance retains its original surround, with columns supporting a scrolled pediment, (now painted), but the eastern entrance has modern metal infill. The three central bays have new storefronts, but retain cornices and molded iron panels above the windows.

The 2nd floor has tripartite windows with transoms. The two westernmost windows have pivoting panes, and the others are Chicago-style, with central stationary panes flanked by one-over-one windows. A modillioned stone cornice caps the 2nd floor, and is surmounted by a wrought-iron balustrade. The 3rd through the 12th floors are articulated by brick piers with vermiculated stone bands that give the effect of rustication. The windows are a pivoting type, grouped in threes.

The 10th floor is capped by a modillioned stone cornice supported on brackets over oval medallions. The piers at the 12th floor have terra-cotta Ionic capitals. A grey-green modillioned metal roof cornice surmounts the facade. The ground floor is occupied by Stretch*d wellness center, Glosslab salon, and High Style Deco furniture store.
