The first level has modern display windows. The historic building behind the <br />screen may have been damaged in a fire in 1914. Historic photos show an earlier <br />building with arched upper -story windows, and another view (ca. 1917) with large <br />rectangular upper- story display windows. <br />Significance <br />This building is locally significant as an important survivor of an early twentieth century <br />commercial block. However, it is not known how much historic fabric survives behind <br />the metal screen. <br />
