Grant Depot and Water Tower, Historic railway depot and wooden water tower in Grant, Michigan.

The railway complex consists of a restored station building and a wooden water tower positioned along the former Chicago and West Michigan Railroad line.

Built in 1891, the depot handled extensive agricultural shipments, including 12 train cars of peaches daily during the 1915 peak season.

The depot transformed local commerce by enabling Grant to become a major agricultural hub, particularly for peach and onion distribution across the region.

The former railway station now operates as a restaurant, with the original agent office and waiting room converted into dining spaces.

The wooden water tower at this location remains one of only two such structures still standing in Michigan.
