Description & Building Alterations

This renaissance revival style five-story with basement old-law tenement building was originally erected in 1893 to accommodate 22 families.

The facade features a rusticated stone base, round-arched openings and a projecting portico with Composite columns supporting a foliate entablature at the first story, stone quoining  at the corners, and a bracketed cornice with garlanded frieze at the roofline. The window lintels vary from floor to floor with splayed stone lintels at the second-story, simple rectangular lintels at the third, pedimented lintels at the fourth, and round-arched lintels with keystones at the fifth story.
