4-story Neo-Grec residential building completed in 1884. Designed by William J. Fryer, Jr. as a factory. For a century it was occupied by four firms involved in marine plumbing, heating, cooling, electrical, and repair contracting. The building was converted to residential use in 1972.

It is clad in brown brick (partially painted), and has stone window sills and lintels. The facade is crowned by a Neo-Grec style metal cornice. The fire escape dates from 1916. A bracketed sign survives from the Meier & Oelhaf Co., one of the early tenants.
