Key elements that contribute to the heritage value of this site include:

- its siting flush to the sidewalk on a major street within downtown Dawson City;

- its boom town architectural vocabulary translated as a rectangular footprint, two-and-a-half pitched roof massing, behind a three-storey false-front;

- its log construction with milled lumber façade;

- the simple articulation of the three-bay façade with central entry between large, multi-pane commercial windows, second-storey balcony and false window at third-storey level;

- its wooden detailing, notably the ornate balcony railing and brackets;

- the functionally driven arrangement of apertures on all other elevations;

- its use of pressed metal as a roofing material;

- the surviving evidence of original interior layout, workmanship and materials.
