The building is a rare surviving example of Canadian Chinese benevolent society architecture.

It consists of a two-story wooden structure with two log lean-tos on the north and east sides and a balcony.

The ground floor is divided into a hostel, kitchen, and socializing space and the top floor was divided between a society hall and an alter room.

It was used by members of the Chee Kung Tong as a place for Chinese immigrants to find shelter and job opportunities.
