The court is located on a wide property, which is considered narrow for bungalow courts, and comprises five buildings containing eleven residential units; the buildings include single-unit, duplex, and triplex houses, an unusual combination in a bungalow court. The buildings are designed in the English Cottage Revival style and feature jerkinhead roofs, arched doors with glass paneling, and a stoop at each entrance covered by an eyebrow hood. The Delux Building company built the court in 1923.[1]

The court was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 15, 1994.
