The West Building was constructed in 1932 and designed by Tong Yu from the Huagai Architectural Firm. It was jointly built by Dahua Foji Construction Company and Chengji Construction Factory, and was completed in 1933. The building faces north and is a steel-concrete structure with a Western style. It has four stories in the middle and three stories on both wings, making it quite spectacular.
