Information from www.heritageporthope.com:
It is a brick commercial building in neo-classical style with residential and/or storage space above. The corner is rounded to Queen and Walton Streets, and the block stands three storeys high in two units facing Walton Street. The roof is a low-pitched gable, parallel to the streets and forming a hip at the corner. A pilastered front of Greek Revival style is topped by a heavy wooden frieze and cornice. The frieze is pierced by stomachers, and the soffit contains mutules and guttae, characteristic of Greek Revival. There are six bays to the Walton Street facade, including one on the rounded corner, and six bays to the Queen Street facade. The windows on the second and third storeys are headed by a plain lintel and supported by lugsills on the third storey and a continuous sill, acting as a string course, on the second storey.

Information from www.heritageporthope.com:
Set on a high stone basement, the arcaded effect of this ground floor opening is preserved with the elegant centre entrance to its seven-bay pilastered front. The notable treatment of this centrepiece with round-headed fanlighted transom to a handsome pair of doors and bracketed canopy is complimented by a Venetian or Wyatt window above. This civic building, designed in the neo-classic inspiration of the early Victorian period, has, with its capped pilasters of the front, a feeling from the Greek revival, the canopy to the entrance a touch of Italianate. Brickwork and stone dressings belong to the original building, as do the hipped roof form with ornamental cornice to the eaves and survivors of the end chimney stacks. The central cupola, octagonal in form, is set on a high stepped base of such plan; the widely louvred faces alternately punctured with four-paned, heavily mullioned transomed windows and adorned with Roman numerated clock faces to the cardinal points. Louvred panels are separated by small slender Roman Doric colonettes with plan shafts having a slightly exaggerated entasis. These columns support a bold cornice with denticulated frieze carrying a metal-tiled roof, octagonal in plan, but extended in an ogre shape to an upper cornice surmounted by a cast iron balustrade and central flag staff.
