Great Northern Freight Warehouse is a red brick warehouse in Fargo, North Dakota that was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

It was built in 1902 and later expanded, in Chicago and/or Commercial Style architecture style.[1]

It's significant for its history and for its architecture.

The building is long and narrow, about 40 by 580 feet (12 m × 177 m) in plan. The eastern end is a two-story 40 by 52 feet (12 m × 16 m) section built in 1923, probably replacing an office section of the original 1902 building, which functions as a headhouse.[2]
