The Little Falls depot was one of Cass Gilbert's last works before he moved east to New York City.

In 1899, the Northern Pacific Railway hired Gilbert to design a depot at a cost not exceeding $7,000.

The steeply pitched roof was originally covered with cedar shingles.

The depot was in use until 1979, when a fire broke out and damaged the roof and the ladies' waiting room.
