Prior to building the new plant, the former water facility was deemed significant by the National Registry of Historic Places due to its physical and historical association with the development of Fargo's municipal infrastructure and the perfection of modern water treatment technology.
In effect, the National Registry felt the former plant made an important contribution to community history.
Since the old plant would be replaced in the building of the new water treatment plant, the North Dakota State Historical Society and the city of Fargo commissioned Prairie Public Television to document the former plant's history, as well as some of the attributes of the new water treatment facility.
