The site was originally two separate buildings, Memorial Hall and Niagara High School. They have been joined by a more recent board and batten bridge structure. Memorial Hall was constructed in 1906, and the Niagara High School was constructed in 1875.
Memorial Hall is designed in the Edwardian Classicism style while Niagara High School is a simplified interpretation of the Italian Villa style.
