I actually worked at Vermilion in 1989-90 when I was a Biological Assistant for Lake Superior State University protecting the Piping Plover. I loved going up into the lookout at the top of the building where I slept and would watch the freighters way off in the distance. Went into frigid Lake Superior in June and there was still snow on the beach! I love that you are looking to preserve it. I am the Education and Events Coordinator at the Frankenmuth Historical Association, so contact me if there is a dedication, you need a speaker or if I may help in any way.

This was very interesting and well presented, thank you!

Wonderful presentation. Loved learning so much about these historic homes, both near and far. Ms. Talley’s presentation was concise, engaging, and incredibly informative. Thank you!

I have reason to believe that Michigan Central Station (MCS) construction began in 1910 (NOT "1912"), shortly after the nearby Michigan Central Railroad (M.C.R.R.) Detroit River Tunnel was completed on July 1. Both of these projects were undertaken by Detroit River Tunnel Company. Building permits for the new landmark were issued by the City of Detroit on May 16, 1910 (before the tunnel opened). It can be argued that MCS construction included an early (completed 1910) segment of the MCS Viaduct, over which the M.C.R.R. double-track mainline ran. Grade separation was instituted along the entire length of M.C.R.R.'s Windsor / Detroit Electric Zone (1910-1953), which used 600-volt DC outside-third-rail technology -- similar to the electrification system at New York City's Grand Central Terminal (GCT). ALL of the elevated through-sidings at MCS were electrified. The 18-track MCS Viaduct (Detroit's largest railroad bridge) WAS a significant part of the station project. Its relatively recent separate ownership by Canadian Pacific Railway (CP), and the recent demolition (Fall 2021) of all ten of the station's long-trackless elevated passenger platform trackways adjacent to MCS's towering "headhouse", does NOT detract from that history. According to the National Bridge Inventory, the MCS Viaduct wasn't officially completed until 1914 -- some time after MCS opened on December 26, 1913.

Very informative presentation, thank you for sharing this. The GFRP elements, and their installation detailing, look utterly atrocious.

Great info

Thanks for posting - I missed the first few minutes. Also, appreciate that the presentation features the female leads in this project.
