It is a three-story building about 50 by 80 feet (15 m × 24 m) in plan with a full basement. Its walls are built of rusticated concrete which appears to be stone. It has a tin Italianate-style cornice and has a parapet inscribed with "1906 / H.J. Coffin".[2]
Space in the Hub Building was donated for temporary use by the community's library, supporting the community's efforts to obtain funding and construct the Burwell Carnegie Library, completed in 1914.[3]
