Appraisal
This building is an attractive composition that retains most of its original form and character. The building incorporates traditional features, such as the fenestration, with elements of the Modern style, such as the barrel roof, to produce an unusual visual effect. The building is distinguished in the streetscape by the profile of the roof.
