This two-story civic structure has a square plan with an arched brick entrance
bay projecting from the main structure with a notched flat roof matching the
notched flat roof of the main body. The symmetrical facade has a central
entrance with 1/1 double-hung windows of assorted sizes with concrete sills
and lintels. The running-bond brick construction rests on a concrete foundation
and has a roofline reminiscent of a parapet on castle walls.
