Two-story building of painted American-bond brick with a shed roof with stepped side parapets. The building bridges over Blacks Run. The façade has recessed wall surfaces on the first and second stories with corbeling at the tops and bottoms of the recesses. The two principal wings have angled corner walls. To the rear (west) side is a one-story wing of decorative concrete block and tile block construction with industrial metal-frame windows. Other features include brick flues, wood and glass panel doors, 1/1 windows with soldier-course lintels and header-course sills, and large aluminum and glass first-story front windows. The 1940-45 Sanborn map is the first to show the building, with a filling station at the corner (105) and a store with a second-floor wallpaper department (111). The Graham Shoe Shop was a former occupant. A laundromat (105) and Iglesia Apostolica de la Fe en Cristo Jesus (109) are present occupants.
