It was originally built about 1849, and considerably altered with a new front in 1868-1869. It is a four-story, three bay wide building measuring 34 by 60 feet (10 by 18 m). It is constructed of brick, with an ashlar granite faced first story and a mansard roof. It features round arched window openings and a heavy wood cornice. In February 2010, the building was undergoing renovation.
