The synagogue was constructed in 1907 and is a 1+12-story, wood-frame building on a deep stone building and built into the side of a hill. It is topped by a gable roof and features a small wooden entrance portico with a hipped roof.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]

The synagogue was last used in 2007 for a Jewish wedding and remained vacant until purchased by Adrian and Todd Perlmutter. In 2021 it was announced that the former synagogue would be repurposed as an arts center.[3][4]
