The only three-story commercial building on the square displays cast iron posts on each end of the storefront and a cast iron step embossed with the name C.T. Black at the entrance. A separate door on the ground floor leads to the second floor. A central door opens to a second floor porch suggesting that a kind of double tier porch was always part of the building. An unusual change is visible on the side between the second and third floors: the brick corner is detailed, so perhaps the third floor was not originally planned. Black Jewelry Store occupied the first floor in 1905; the upper floors were residences. Oral history reveals Teddy Roosevelt recruited Rough Riders here. John Ferber, who had worked with the Fort Worth bootmaker John Justin, later used the first floor. Oral history notes he would repair shoes then throw them into a pile, and direct the owners to find their own shoes.
