It was deemed "historically significant for its association with the community's leading fraternal organization in the early 20th century, and is the best preserved example of vernacular commercial architecture from the period." Its NRHP nomination describes it as having been "the venue of the community's most important social events and civic meetings. Today the building is a rare reminder of Cheney's public life during its formative years."[2]
