The Ramsey County Sheriff's Office was designed by Haxby & Gillespie and was built in 1909 by the Dinnie Brothers. Also known as Lake Region Heritage Center, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]

It is "a well-preserved example of Georgian Revival architecture" and is deemed significant "for its original long-term use as the official residence of the sheriffs of Ramsey County." From 1974 on it served as a cultural center.[2]
