Modern one-story building of irregular form with a flat roof and cinder block construction. The stretcher-bond brick veneer has occasional header/stretcher courses. At the northeast corner is a recessed entry under a modern metal roof supported on cylindrical aluminum columns. The recessed wall surface has a limestone facing. At the northwest corner are wraparound ribbon windows in a projecting concrete frame, shaded by a mansard-like metal roof. On the east side is a portico that projects above the roof and has brick pylon-like supports. The Sanborn map dates the building to 1952, although the cornerstone date is 1951. Now Social Security Administration Office.
