The warehouse building was constructed in two sections, the east portion in 1905 and the west portion in 1907. The structure was designed in the Romanesque Revival style, albeit a reduced example. Painted logos grace several of the facades, making it a well-known building to most Winnipeggers.

In 2017, the building received a City of Winnipeg historic building designation.
