It is a double-H-shaped five-story building with elements of design of the early skyscrapers being built in Chicago in the late 1800s. It has a prominent terra cotta cornice and dentil molding. Its first floor has been altered and new windows on the upper floors have compromised the building's design integrity however.[2]
