Heritage attributes

Beaux Arts style. The temple-like front space, one-piece cut stone window surround, lintel with a decorative keystone motif, and the rigid symmetry of the balanced façade denote the architectural significance of the building. Other features include the deep bracketed soffit and cornice boards, the applied decorative motifs over the front door, dressed sandstone, combined with the steeply pitched copper clad, and hipped roof with battens.
