Hand-tooled limestone piers define this one-story commercial building built in 1889 to replace a smaller two-story stone building. Remodeling has occurred at least three times in the 20th century. The most recent remodeling highlights the vertical glass panes in the three transom windows on the front façade. Originally occupied by a tailor/milliner, it has housed a meat market/sausage factory, confectionery, jewelry store and an ice cream factory.
