Designed by architect M. Leo Elliott, the Old Frostproof High School (later Frostproof City Hall) is a two story Mediterranean Revival building constructed in 1926. It is masonry, with a brick foundation, and a patterned stucco exterior finish. Its low pitched hipped roof is covered with asphalt shingles. Most of the windows are banks of aluminum awning windows. The "T" shaped building features towers at the east and west ends of the main wing. The building features a high degree of architectural detail at the central bay of the main elevation and tower entrances. The Old Frostproof High School was later added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places on November 13, 1997.
