Salisbury Southern Railroad Passenger Depot - Train Stations/Depots on Waymarking.com

the Salisbury Southern Railroad Passenger Depot, was designed by Frank Pierce Milburn and built in 1907-1908. The station is an excellent example of a Spanish Mission style brick structure. The building spans the length of two city blocks and includes a two-course water table dividing the dark red brick base and tan brick body of the building, Spanish tile roof, and a dominating central three and one-half story tower ornamented by projecting gargoyles.

The building was listed individually on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
