Description

2 East High Street in Airdrie is a late 19th-century, two-storey, three-bay corner tenement building that features shops on the ground floor. The corner bay has an attic storey with a pedimented oculus at the center. The exterior is finished with painted ashlar sandstone courses and includes channelled quoins between the bays, a base course, and a dentil-moulded dividing band between the ground and upper storeys. The eaves course has a consoled projecting cornice, and the window sills are also consoled and projecting.

On the south elevation facing South Bridge Street, there are three bays with a bowed corner entrance bay to the left, featuring a modern shop front on the ground floor. Above a large plate glass window is a blind semicircular arch that supports scrollwork cresting with acanthus detailing at the center. The upper storey has an advanced canted window and a bowed corner bay to the left with a consoled and panelled dado. The attic storey has bracketed chimneys flanking a central semicircular pediment on a fluted parapet, with oculi at the center and acanthus scroll cresting.

The east elevation mirrors the south elevation, but the ground floor has a crested blind arch at the center and a door to the far left. The south elevation is partially obscured by an adjoining building.

The upper storey features four-pane timber sash and case windows, while the ground floor has plate glass shop fronts. The roof is covered with grey slates and includes lead flashing and a lead roof for the attic. There are coped skews, urn-finialed consoled skewputts, and a coped gable stack on the east side.

Inside, the ground floor has a modern retail interior, while the upper storey has been refurbished for office use.
