The first floor held customer service and the processing plant, while the second floor contained company offices. The business used the latest technology from Chicago, and the name was changed in the 1970s. The building is a well-detailed example of the Spanish Eclectic style, which was popular for homes and businesses during the prosperous late 1920s. It has an L-shaped plan, buff brick walls, stone accents at a one-story covered entry porch, and a Spanish clay tile hipped roof with a parapet. Windows and doors vary, including paired Moorish arched fixed glass units with patterned tilework above, French doors with fanlights, and an arched multi-light main entry. Ornamental grille work covers the lower parts of the windows. It was recognized for its architecture at the local level, and by 1985 it was being converted to a jewelry store.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Spanish Eclectic","criteria":[],"status_note":"Physical condition is listed as good and the site is original.
