Rochester Grain Elevator
Rochester Grain Elevator, Grain elevator in Rochester, Michigan.
The red wooden structure at 303 West University Drive combines three connected sections with different heights and architectural features spanning multiple floors.
Built in 1880 by the Griggs brothers, this grain storage facility expanded in 1884 and underwent major renovations in 1909 under the Rochester Elevator Company.
The structure represents the agricultural heritage of Rochester, documenting the transformation of local farming practices and grain distribution methods over generations.
The former grain elevator undergoes redevelopment into The Granary project, which will include 30 residential apartments and a community center.
The building maintains its original timber frame construction on a fieldstone foundation, with sections featuring both vertical sawn siding and varied wood patterns.
