    In 1871 the architect William Jose designed Nos. 106 and 108 Charles Street as a pair of five-story brick apartment houses for Richard Schmidt & Co. Their segmental-arched windows are late Italianate examples, topped by brick lintels that follow the curve of each arch. Occasional darker bricks set into the walls give the brick a mottled look.
