One of the most handsome at the north end of Broadway, this building has a Classical Revival facade, faced with cream-colored brick with a butter joint. The central bay has three brick-arched windows and a dentilled metal cornice. Built in 1905, it was designed by the Hancock Brothers. Prior to 1928, it housed the Dixon Hotel and Laundry.
