The Romanesque Revival structure was the first building in Springfield to feature a number of modern amenities and stylistic features: steam heat, passenger elevators, and running water on all floors. The building once featured an onion dome at the corner, but this was removed sometime in the 20th century. Early tenants included prominent local clothiers and doctors.
