Design Characteristics
- This building represents a relatively rare use of the Brutalist style for a small-scale commercial building
- Worthy of attention in this regard are the deeply inset windows and the vertically-inscribed bare concrete walls, which call to mind the “corduroy concrete” of such Brutalist buildings as Paul Rudolph’s 1963 Yale Art and Architecture Building
