It consists of a two-story, side-gabled main building constructed in 1919; two 1 1⁄2-story flanking wings built in 1936, and a two-part addition constructed in 1955. The main building features a 1 1⁄2-story protruding portico with a stone arch flanked by two open oculi and supported by two stone Tuscan columns.
The hall memorializes the 288 young men from Greece who served in World War I, thirteen of whom died in battle.[2]
