The building was originally built for the Roslyn Savings Bank on the site of the former Roslyn Hotel in 1932, with additions being built in 1963 and 1980.[2] The original portion of the structure consists of a one-story banking hall with a gable roof, with a two-story flat roofed office block in a Georgian Revival style. The original front facade is five bays wide with a center entrance and features an elaborate, pedimented stone surround.[3]
