Built as the Reception Saloon in 1908, this two-story, wood-framed building has a clapboard exterior and modillioned cornice. The original storefront entrance was lost when the first floor was converted to apartments at the onset of Prohibition, but in the mid-1980s that storefront was restored. The building exhibits the plainness of Cordova's early commercial buildings.
