A n early 20th century office building that has aged well. Its design was decades ahead of its time, and can fit in with the sort of mid-rise office buildings currently being erected in the southern American states. The building was erected with a religious purpose, and that is made clear by the thickened spandrels on the side walls which intersect to form a cross. This demonstrates the intended purpose of the building, while doing so in a subtle, tasteful, and business-like fashion.
