The brick walls are not load-bearing, and the roof rests essentially on cast iron pillars.
Sober but nevertheless elegant, the facade presents interesting decorative motifs such as mascarons and corner acroteria in the form of lions' heads.
A beautiful stylized dolphin adorns a fountain at the foot of the hall.
