description

Summary

Significance: The two-story Occidental Restaurant functions aesthetically with the Occidental Hotel, (DC-325), continuing the fenestration and rustication of the hotel. Built before 1870, as the Owen House, a five story rooming house, it may have received the present facade in 1914 when the top three floors were removed. The street facade of white-glazed terra-cotta has an arched central entry within a trabeated ground floor. The rusticated second floor features tall square-headed openings with French doors and iron railings.
