4-story Neo-Grec residential building completed in 1879. Designed by I. Irving Howard, it is an interesting survival in this block. It is much smaller in scale than its neighbors, and clad in red brick. The entrance is flanked by columns supporting a cornice slab which ties in with a horizontal band course of similar profile on either side. The flush band courses at the upper floors, window lintels and sills, and the rich cornice are typical of Neo-Grec work of the period.
