About this property

The Pine Tree Lumber Company Office Building is a historic building in Little Falls, Minnesota. It was built in 1891 as a headquarters for the Pine Tree Lumber Company, headed by Charles Weyerhaeuser and Richard Musser. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 5, 1985. Little Falls was chosen as the location for the company because of its location on the Mississippi River and because of the Northern Pacific Railway that ran through the time. The business was a part of the "timber boom" years for Little Falls, a time of great development, notably reflected in the Little Falls Commercial Historic District. It is the last remaining building associated with the business.
