From the National Register nomination

One-story painted cinder block building with a shed roof with stepped end parapets. Over four former and present freight entries on the west side are cantilevered metal-sheathed roofs of truncated triangular form. Other features include vertical tongue-and-groove freight doors on tracks, cinder block flues, and four-light metal-frame windows. It is possible the building was built in two phases. Ring's Feed Store may have occupied a portion of the building in 1955.
