    Built between 1899 and 1901 for Peter J. Herter and designed by the firm P. Herter & Son, the wide six-story building has semicircular window heads of corbeled brick with terra cotta trim. Carved human heads serve as keystones, and terra cotta spandrel panels and variegated band courses add detail. The ground floor was later remodeled with small paired windows set in square brick panels.
