According to (visit link)

"The original Negaunee depot burned in 1879.[2] This Negaunee depot was built in 1884 by the Marquette and Western Railroad as a freight and passenger depot.[3] After only a year of service, the entire line was bought by a competitor, the Marquette, Houghton and Ontonagon Railroad.[3] The structure was used as the main freight and passenger depot in Negaunee until it was replaced with a newer structure in 1922.[2] In 1912 it was moved a short distance across the railroad tracks[4] to the location it now stands.[3] The structure was used by the Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway as offices, warehouse space, and a freight depot until 1965.[3] The station has recently been converted into an artist's studio.[2]
