The two-story Victorian Gothic building was built in 1894 with ornate brickwork, niches, and arches. Its unique feature is the corner turret.
From the information sign, we learn that the building name was derived from the three owners: Edward Allen, building contractor; Samuel Grumbine, attorney; and Hattie Nixon, wife of another building contractor. The Moorish appearance was popular in 1860s Pennsylvania.
