Michigan Central

The view from the patio of Green Dot Stables is of the backside of the currently abandoned and forever in some state of rehabilitation, Michigan Central Station.

The station opened in 1913 and remained operational until 1988. At the time of its construction, it was the tallest rail station in the world.

A personal connection to this building would be that my father shipped out from this station to Marine boot camp after being drafted in the Korean War.

A return trip for more photos and further exploration is definitely on the horizon.
