The front of 2030 is five bays of buff brick with molded limestone lintels, keystones on the ground floor, and string courses of limestone and rough-faced brick. Brick pilasters rest on carved limestone bases, and a bracketed limestone hood and surround frame historic paired wood-and-glass doors that still carry a wood-grain finish. A separate entry tucked under the stoop leads to the basement.
