    In 1921 Albert M. Gilday and Emelia Ludwig built a one-story building on the triangular corner site, with an entrance at 35-37 Barrow Street. The 1969 district report calls it architecturally undistinguished but notes that it harmonizes well with the low buildings along the block between Barrow and Commerce Streets. It adds that the building housed a sidewalk cafe.
