In an advertisement in the\u00a0Hancock Evening Journal\u00a0of December 29, 1901, Nystrom proudly claimed this building, along with the Nelson Schroeder Block, as \u201cexamples of our work.\u201d The three-story brick building is rounded at the corner with a modillioned cornice. The first floor is rough-faced Jacobsville sandstone with a smooth-faced cornice. Ionic columns frame each of the three doorways; the columns on the corner are polished granite with sandstone capitals. The second and third floors are united in two-story round arches.<\/p>\n
