The building, which provides display rooms for Preble's York Ice Machine company as well as offices for McClelland and Preble, was constructed in record time. Work began late in October.
The building is set back from the street to provide adequate space for a lawn and shrubs.
Each office is 10 feet by 14 and the display room in the same size.
The modernistic front makes the new building one of the most interesting in the valley. A great circular entrance is flanked by tall panels composed of small squares of plate glass embellished with squares of crimson carrara glass.
The building, according to Mark McClelland, who drew the plans, is termite proof and fire proof as a result of the monolithic type of construction.
