A blue sign on a concrete wall, reading the following German text: "Built in 1926 by architect J. Geiger on behalf of the Stephen Taylor, Westindische Bananen-Centrale. This concrete skeleton frame building is a blend between an industrial building and business headquarters. The façade's style stands between Art Nouveau and New Objectivity; its sculptural decorative elements remind of the banana import trade. Protected building since 1987."
