Photograph of three commercial buildings on Avenue G with the addresses 1903, 1915, and 1919. The buildings are all two story brick with flat roofs. Two have layered frieze of brick, textured design around windows, arched and rectangle. One has arched windows with decorative brick work. One has a false gable facade with textured brick work.
