3.5-story residential building completed in 1838 as a townhouse. It is clad in red-painted brick above a smooth-stuccoed storefront. The most notable feature is the steeply pitched attic roof, with two dormers crowned by gables. They flank a glass skylight placed just above the cornice. Beneath it, a new studio window has been introduced at the center of the third story. The doorway at the top of the narrow stoop is deeply recessed. The alterations match the neighboring building on the west, except for the pitched roof and dormers. The ground floor is occupied by the Textile Arts Center, with the basement level occupied by Arts and Crafts Beer Parlor.
