It shares a six-story, five-bay French Renaissance facade with 113-115 and 121 Prince. Each section is flanked by elaborate pilasters, and stylized Ionic capitals top the colonnettes between the windows. Fifth-floor panels carry coffering with a leaf ornament, and the sixth-floor windows are arched.
