Its 1992 NRHP nomination asserted it is important "as a distinct and important type of commercial structure which was common in Sandy City in the latter half of the nineteenth century. This structure is the only remaining two-story commercial block from Sandy's original commercial district." It is associated with the mining, smelting, and small farm era of Sandy. Sandy had been connected by railroad in 1871.[3]
