From the National Register nomination
Moderne two-story building of stretcher-bond honey brick with salmon brick accents, much of it banded. The building has a curved corner with a fin-like element of brick rising up the facade. In the second story are ribbon windows with 2/2 sash alternating with aluminum panels. A vertically channeled metal fascia extends over the storefront, which itself has curved glass at the angled corner entry and red Carrara glass. The north side along W. Water St. has high glass block windows. Architectural historian Ann McCleary considers the Hostetter Building "one of the best streamlined 'moderne' buildings in Harrisonburg." Law, insurance, realty, and doctor offices occupied the building in 1955. Now Oasis gallery.
