The buildings are preserved as a historical monument, and have been renovated for use as a restaurant hall (south-wing) and a diorama exhibition depicting Tsuruga during the Shōwa era with a model railroad (north wing).

In January 2009, the north and south wings of the building as well as their surroundings were designated as a registered tangible cultural property of Japan.

As a part of effort in May 2018, a Kiha 28 Series diesel train was installed on adjacent land on the north side of the warehouse.
