Designed by Hyman Isaac Feldman, it serves as part of Yeshiva University's Beren Campus, which houses the Stern College for Women. The facade is clad in beige brick and glass. The ground floor is recessed behind four white-painted columns, divided the base into three bay. The northern one has a set of stairs leading back to the main entrance, with multiple sets of metal-framed glass doors. The other two bays have floor-to-ceiling windows and additional glass door, fronted by a glass railing at the building line, below which a basement level has short, frosted glass windows at both bays. A curtain wall of opaque glass covers the 2nd-3rd floors, with thin steel mullions. The 4th-7th floors have wide 4-over-2 windows in each bay, slightly recessed between the brick piers. The 8th floor has another section of glass curtain wall, and then a large setback to the top floors.

The brick top floors have have the same window bays as the 4th-7th, with a tall expanse of windowless brick topping the facade, which each bay having three narrow vertical grooves, and the piers being slightly recessed instead of projecting as below.
