This building, constructed by the St. Louis contractor A. M. Landberg, rests on a concrete foundation and has a flat tar and gravel roof. Its fivebay facade has a centrally placed entrance. The entrance featuring paired multi-light doors, is recessed and framed by wooden fluted pilasters supporting an entablature with triglyphs and metopes. A pediment tops the doorway. Flanking the entrance are modern one-light, fixed narrow windows with stone sills. The remaining fenestration consists of modern, 1/1 light, double-hung, sash windows with stone sills. The windows are placed within arched panels. Original windows consisted of 12/12 lights. A denticulated, molded box cornice supports an alternating brick and balustraded parapet. The water table is cut stone. A corner stone located at the west end of the main facade reads "James A. Wetmore Acting Supervisory Architect 1925 A.W. Welton Secretary of Treasury." (Contributing)
