Lapeer Depot
71 Howard St Lapeer
The Lapeer Depot, constructed in 1906 for the Grand Trunk Western Railroad, stands as a testament to early 20th-century architecture with its wood-framed, clapboard-sided structure and distinctive central tower. Serving as a vital stop between Port Huron and Flint, it remains one of Michigan's 21 active depots, facilitating Amtrak's Blue Water line connecting Chicago and Port Huron. Renovations in 1990 and a comprehensive historic restoration in 2004 have preserved its historical charm, making it a cherished landmark in Lapeer.
