The building was purchased, disassembled, and moved to the Storrow Village Museum by Helen O. Storrow in 1929.
The an unusual feature of this office building is the arched, copper roof. The rectangular building has an entrance and two glass paned windows on the front and one window on each side. The Eddy Law Office is only existing example of this style of construction from the early 19th century.
