About This Property

 This 2-part commercial block illustrates the historical evolution typical of properties in the district. Probably as a result of economic incentives fostered by the 1920s oil boom, this early 20th century building received a sheathing of classically inspired terra cotta about 1925. Property owners often employed such methods of modernizing their property during the district's period of significance. Unfortunately, more recent (c. 1980s) remodelings produced additional changes that obscure the building's historic appearance, requiring classification as a Noncontributing element of the district.
