The building was acquired by the [[North Hill Preservation Society]] in September [[1974]] and restored by [[Theophalis May]]. Its construction, which inspired the [[L&N Marine Terminal Building]], was two-and-a-half stories of wood frame, plus a wraparound balcony on the second floor, over a brick basement. Its external dimensions were 85'4" by 41' with a 40 by 60 foot meeting room and gymnasium. The 230 foot running track, constructed of wood, was suspended from the second floor and encircled the gymnasium's inner perimeter. | The building was acquired by the [[North Hill Preservation Society]] in September [[1974]] and restored by [[Theophalis May]].
