Grand Canyon Railroad Depot: Historic Structure Report

2008. Grand Canyon Railroad Depot: Historic Structure Report. Historic Structure Report. Chamberlin Architects, PC

This Historic Structure Report on the Grand Canyon Depot is intended to edit, augment, and revise existing documents as well as provide additional information. The report will provide a thorough description of the background, physical development, and significance of the structure and its environs in order to assist in scheduling and affecting the most appropriate use of this historic building. Two periods of significance are proposed. The main period of significance for the Depot and its surrounding site is 1927-1934. This period corresponds to the major fulfillment of the Village plan with its community attributes and significant landscape features. To restore the site to the period prior to 1927 would require the removal of significant historic fabric. The second period of significance from 1929 to 1968 is recommended for the Depot building alone. This period represents the period when the full extent of the structure was completed and remained functionally intact during the period of uninterrupted passenger service. Rehabilitation should be based upon these dates.
