PARCS was never the second tallest structure in North Dakota. I'm going to assume that it was built some time after radar was being implemented on a large scale (i.e., the 1950s)... Even at that time the North Dakota State Capitol (74 m, 1934) was standing, as were the cathedrals in Fargo (52 m, 1899 and 51 m, 1920). This doesn't take into account that the KVLY and KXJB towers were built in 1963 and 1966 respectively, and there's a good chance that's before PARCS was built as well. So no way, no how, was PARCS ever the second tallest structure in North Dakota. --AlexWCovington (talk) 03:43, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The North Dakota Mill and Elevator also was around well before PARCS and must be quite a bit taller. --MatthewUND(talk) 03:55, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Ah yes, the grain elevator, tall but always overlooked. We should get around to compiling a list of tall buildings in North Dakota sometime, and be sure to include the elevators. --AlexWCovington (talk) 19:09, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Coverage map[edit]

The area covered by the the AN/FPQ-16 PARCS at Cavalier Air Force Station, is missing from the map currently shown on the PAVE PAWS & Ballistic Missile Early Warning System perhaps it could be indicated in yellow or green.Graham1973 (talk) 14:58, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
