In its NRHP nomination, it was deemed significant as "a distinctive example of a significant type of construction in Gordon, Nebraska, namely ... a Dutch Colonial Revival residence." It was noted that Dutch Colonial Revival is "extremely rare...in this part of Nebraska." In fact it is apparently the only example in Sheridan County. And also it was also deemed significant for association with Lee Fritz, "a leading Sheridan County citizen".[2]
