Constructed in 1909-10, this is the only remaining structural log railroad depot in the country. Built for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad, it helped establish the rustic sense of place of the Grand Canyon by being the first building the railway passengers encountered upon arriving. Symbolic of the "destination resort" that the railroad developed Grand Canyon into, it is one of the handful of rustic depots constructed.
