5-story Italianate residential building completed in 1869 as a tenement with ground-floor stores. It was converted to lofts with stores in 1906 by architect James W. Cole, and then converted into a warehouse in 1917. The building was converted to apartments in 1977.

It is constructed of beige-painted brick and has segmental-arched window openings with stone trim and cast-iron columns and pilasters at the ground floor. The fire escape and ground floor ironwork, cresting and areaway railing, are historic. The visible south wall has the remains of a painted wall sign. A brick bulkhead at the roof is visible over the south wall. The balconies were installed in 1977 during the residential conversion.
