The Eagle Tavern is a two-story wooden building sheathed in clapboard. It has a central door with a small portico, and symmetrically placed single and paired two-over-two windows. The building was used as a tavern until 1850, when it was converted into a two-family residence. Around 1900 the building was rented to the Catholic Extension Society, and in 1907 became vacant.
