Its nomination for National Register listing was considered by the North Dakota State Historic Preservation Review Board, located in Bismarck, at its April 24, 2020 meeting via web conference.[2] It was officially listed on June 5, 2020.[1]
A webpage of Rosin Preservation states, as of February 2021, that:
This former Harvey power plant is being converted into a mental health “oasis” to serve this rural region of North Dakota. Once renovated, the building will serve as a physical symbol and metaphor for the mental and emotional healing offered within its walls.[3]
