This is a one-story native sandstone armory building located at 315 E. 9th Avenue, currently occupied as the Parks and Recreation Recreation Center. The office area is on the north side. There is a slightly projected entrance bay with a single glass door and sidelight. The tall window units have a fixed pane at the top and double hung sashes beneath.
The drill floor area is located south of the offices and has a barrel roof with two vehicle doors. The armory was constructed as a WPA project in 1936, with an appropriation of $30,871. A large cornerstone on the northwest corner of the building reads:
State Armory ----- Built by Works Progress Administration 1936 ----- W.S. Key State Administrator
