This beautiful doorway and the exterior front columned portico of this neoclassical building first served as the front door to the Moorhead Federal Post Office, designed by architect Oscar Wenderoth.
Construction began in 1913. The building opened to the public in 1915, serving as the Post Office until 1960, when it became the Moorhead City Office Building. Since 1966, it has served as a center for the visual arts, housing the Red River Art Center, the Plains Art Museum, and now The Rourke Art Gallery + Museum.
