The training building is in good condition and does not appear to have been modified since its original construction. It does not appear to exhibit significant architectural character or merit.
The training building functions as an administrative and drill facility for Truman O. Olson Memorial USARC. Constructed in 1970, it is an irregular-shaped building consisting of a one-story rectangular administration section (basement is exposed on the south side) connected to a 1½-story rectangular drill hall by a one-story enclosed corridor.
The building rests on a poured concrete foundation and has concrete block walls with a brick veneer on the top half of the buildings. The lower half is exposed concrete block. On the east wall of the administration section is a pedestrian door with an awning supported by corbelled brick. A paired metal pedestrian door is located on the west wall of the administration section. Additional entrances include two single metal pedestrian doors and a metal overhead-retractable bay door on the south wall of the drill hall. Windows are located around the perimeter of the administration section. A freestanding brick chimney is located south of the eastern half of the administration section. Flat roofs cover the structure.
