Designed by architect Albert Randolph Ross, the structure exemplifies the refined classical aesthetics characteristic of the Beaux-Arts movement and stands as a particularly distinguished local example of the style. A modern addition was constructed in 1979 to expand the facility. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of its architectural significance.
