Michigan Central Station Grand Reopening!
In 2024 after six years of meticulous renovations by the Ford Motor Company, the once decrepit Michigan Central Station has been restored and reopened to the public with a grand celebration! Many of my photographs were used for informational plaques, interpretive signs, and museum-style displays throughout the newly reopened building. (To see a complete set of my old photos of the building at its worst, please view The Ruins of Michigan Central Station.)

The restored ticket windows are absolutely gorgeous! |

Several of my photographs are scattered throughout the display. |
A large plaque of my photo shows the general waiting room before renovations. |
Another one of my photo plaques shows the old window and decaying column in the front corner of the station. |
