5-story Neo-Grec residential building completed in 1884. It has faced in brownstone, with the basement level painted red. The central entrance is atop a wide, low stoop (also painted red, with low, black iron handrails), and it has a paneled wood-and-glass double-door. On either side is a wide single-window with iron grilles.

The upper floors have four bays of single-windows with flat brownstone sills. A black iron fire escape with decorative landing railings runs down the middle two bays of the facade, which is crowned by a light-brown metal roof cornice with five large brackets, smaller intermediate brackets, dentils, and panels.
