Evaluation:

This is a contributing Fifth Street building within the historic district. 

Physical Description:

This is a single-story red brick storefront (core measures 19 feet by 96 feet). The upper facade treatment largely matches that of 104 Fifth save to the slightly taller recessed panels and the absence of a parapet base treatment. This storefront retains its steel beam with rosettes but the storefront with its modern garage door replacement is post-1968. The brick color also matches. The rear addition is of tile construction.

Documented Alterations:

This addition also extended the plan of 104 Fifth to the south and the two buildings were opened up internally.   Permits show remodeling’s of systems in 1972-76.  No directory listing for 106 is found in 1970, 1985 or 1995.
