From the National Register nomination
Three-story, four-bay brick commercial building matching the adjoining, later building at 147 N. Wayne. Upper-story fenestration consists of one-over-one double-hung wood sash with cast-stone sills and jack arches. Side and rear elevations have segmentally arched window openings. A decorative brick cornice with modillion-like detailing crowns the parapet that, along with stepped side parapets, obscures the shed roof. The ground-level storefront features large aluminum-framed display windows, a recessed entry, a transom obscured by an asphalt-shingled shed roof, and a separate stairhall entrance. A two-story brick rear addition is partially integrated into the adjoining Colonnade shopping center, located outside the boundary of the historic district (Shaw, Ranzini and Wood, "Waynesboro Downtown Historic District").
