The single story masonry building was designed by the Office of the Supervising Architect under Louis A. Simon, and built in 1937. A Colonial Revival building, it features a cupola with round-arch louvered vents, and a front entry that is flanked by Doric columns supporting a cornice with a golden eagle.
