Neoclassical corner-anchor building served as both the Leeds Woolen Mills Company and the Newark Shoe Company. Terra cotta detailing accentuates this 3 story brick building. Upper closed down windows prevent this from being individually eligible, but it still meets registration requirements for a contributing building to a surrounding district. Joe Optican's was an old and very popular jewelry store in downtown
The store is still located on the southeast corner of 7th & Felix but has changed hands several times
