In October 1980, plans were unveiled to convert the building into a European restaurant called Les Bonnes Femmes.[3] However, by 1982 the building still hadn't been converted.[4] There was a Turkish restaurant in 1984.[5] In 1989, the top floor was turned into a dance studio.[6]

The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since September 18, 1980.[1]
