A commercial building located on the site of the former home and office of
one of the Roosevelts, Hunt's iron loft building was meant to generate
income for
the hospital established in honor of Roosevelt. Built as a speculative
office building and without a company image, it is unusual for the
district. The building has large areas of glass on the facade and a
structural treatment expressed at the corners and main support areas of
the
building. Small French-styled ornamental grillwork provides some detail
on one of the last structures erected during the cast-iron era. .
