It was designed by architect B. Morgan Nisbet and was built in 1919. It is a two-story Mission- or Spanish Revival-style stucco building. It has an outset center bay with a Baroque false gable.[2]

It was deemed to be "the best example of the [Mission] style used for governmental functions" among Mission style buildings in Twin Falls County where the style was popular during 1910 to 1928.[2]

The building was demolished on January 26, 1993.[3]
