This 2-story, brick commercial building faces west and contains two storefronts. The south storefront contains ganged, metal, plate-glass windows and double, single-light, wood doors with a metal transom. Modified circa 2010, the north storefront is clad in wood weatherboard and features multi-light, fixed windows flanking a wood door with a Colonial Revival-style door surround. A flat-roofed canopy shelters both storefronts, and is anchored to the upper part of the building. The frieze windows directly above the canopy have been covered with plywood. Four rectangular, recessed, brick panels are located in the upper story, and the parapet roof has a corbelled brick cornice. On the south storefront, a row of square windows has been inserted between the canopy and the recessed brick panels.
