Winter Garden's first depot was located at this site at 1 North Main Street. Built in 1893 by local farmers, this building was only 16 feet by 20 feet. Later on this site, the ACL built a wood frame structure and, in 1918, erected a brick terminal. Today the depot serves as the Winter Garden Heritage Museum, as described in Wikipedia.
