This two-story brick structure was erected in 1913 on a corner site in a predominantly residential neighborhood. Two unaltered storefronts extend across the front of the ground floor, with residential flats above. Raised frieze panels, a corbelled brick cornice and a stepped parapet are the only decorative elements in this straightforward building. An upper-story loggia has been filled in. The original owner through 1933 was Henry S. Nowlin, who operated a drug store on the ground floor and lived upstairs. The designer and builder was E. E. Churchill. The Nowlin Building has been demolished.
