RESTORATION 2024
Building stabilization is underway.
An 1867-type foundation and years of settlement
exacerbated by the 2007 flood created the need for stabilization and restoration.
The Depot will be CLOSED until further notice while the building is renovated.
This project is made possible in part by the people of Minnesota through a grant funded by an
appropriation to the Minnesota Historical Society from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural
Heritage Fund. The Historic Resources Advisory Committee (HRAC) recommended this project for
funding, and the MNHS Executive Council approved their recommendation.
