First listed in the city directory in 1910, the Elena Flats is one of the last remaining examples of the small rooming houses that prospered in Downtown during the early years of the twentieth century.  The building has traits of the Colonial Revival style, including classical columns, a balustrade, and dentilled and bracketed cornice.  The second-story facade features three curious foliate ornaments of unknown historical reference.
