   A photograph of this year, which raised the building's status code, shows the unusual horizontally divided wood-sash windows to be original and most of the original articulation intact. The Downtown Inventory evaluation had recorded the windows as alterations and the DPR 523 A form prepared for the South of Market survey had found the building did not retain integrity.
