Joban Realty Corp. filed plans in 1936 for this six-story building by Miller & Goldhammer, faced in beige and orange brick with cast stone. The Art Deco design has wrap-around corner windows, a crenellated brick parapet and striated spandrels, and the entry porch carries a large cast-stone panel with the address. The original multi-pane steel casement windows have since been replaced.
