John Belford, Waterman Properties, LLC, owner; Wilson, Darnell, Mann Architects. The 1929 building represents the early twentieth-century Commercial Style, featuring simple lines and an emphasis on fire-resistance with fire-proof materials such as reinforced concrete, brick and steel. “Keep Klean” is inscribed in the limestone above the main entrance of the building, a towel and linen supply business that operated from 1929 to 1978.
