It is a two-story brick rectangular block building. Exterior detail on the building, believed to have been wooden, has been lost: an upper cornice, window heads, and a belt course between the two floors. The date "1874" and the letters "I.O.O.F." remain.[2]

It was built as a one-story brick building, the Lavinsky Store, in 1861, then expanded in 1874 to add a second story to accommodate the Odd Fellows' meeting hall.[2]
