Mark & Sheftall, 1915

A pair of bravura cantilevered canopies soar above the balcony entrances on this two-story apartment building.These balconies shelter the porches below, with rectangular piers carrying intersecting crossmembers.  The main roofline parallels the angle of the canopies. This U-shaped building closely resembles two other Jacksonville apartment buildings, 1620-1634 Donald Street and 349-355 West Fifth Street.

Listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 as part of the Riverside Historic District.
