It has a truncated hipped roof, parapeted tower, and platform porch extending across the front facade. A one-story kitchen addition was built in 1940, and a three-story addition in 1963. The building was remodeled in 995, after a fire on the second and third floors. It has housed the Indiana Gamma Omicron Chapter of Alpha Tau Omega fraternity since its construction.[2]:5-6
