This survey mark is in the foundation of a Rouge River gage station building in Shiawassee Park in Farmington, Michigan. The gage station building is between a walking path and the river. The height measurement gage is a little upstream on the opposite bank of the river. Parking is available off Shiawassee Road just east of the intersection with Farmington Road.
