Notes
M&SE Depot at Marquette. This building was constructed on South Lake Street by the Lake Shore Engineering Company in 1874 with an addition added in 1886. It was originally used to manufacture mining machinery until 1907 when they moved out and the M&SE acquired the property converting it into a passenger station and general offices. This two-story brick building had two wings, one measuring 46' by 338' and the other 46' by 104'. [UPM]
