It is a Victorian-style bandstand pavilion which is 52.6 feet (16.0 m) in diameter and 46 feet (14 m) tall and was built by Poitivent and Farve in 1888. The 1975 National Register nomination noted that "At one time there was a long wooden foot bridge that went to the upper level. Railings that went around the upper level are now missing and should be replaced." and "The Springs themselves were cemented over by the State and should be opened. (The Pavilion is built over the Springs.)"[3]
