Bob-
I know you recently asked about Potter Street, and I really don't have much to add, other than to note that I saw it last week, and she still looks two-steps away from falling in. Last I understood, they had no sooner got the new roof on (damaged in a fire in early 1990's) and the clock-tower fell in. The whole seems to have been patched temporaryly from what I can tell, although at best this is stabilization and, well, it just doesn't look the same. There is now a large fence around the entire depot, and the windows are pretty much all bordered up. It still looks pretty shaky to my untrained eyes anyway.

That's too bad, it was a nice station, and was in pretty good shape until the fire. I had always hoped for a restoration, along with the Saginaw roundhouse, which I thought might would someday be the home for PM 1223 and 1225. Alas, it appears none of it is to be.
