It is rectangular in plan with its axis oriented north-south parallel to the Kinnickinnic River. The west elevation has been clad in wood shingles with wood trim at the corners while the east, north, and south elevations are clad in corrugated sheet metal. The roof is covered with corrugated sheet metal. The building lacks fenestration but has sliding vehicular doors in the south gable end wall. A second one-story side-gabled warehouse, also constructed in 1960, stands on the same property southeast of the building described above.
