Besides being used as a warehouse, the building has also been used as a recording studio. In 2012, a process was begun to buy the building for $245,000 and turn it into a microdistillery, making rye whiskey.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.[1] It is a few doors down from the R. K. Schnader & Sons Tobacco Warehouse which is also listed on the National Register.
