Longyear Building

The Longyear Building, located at 210 North Front Street in Marquette, Michigan, is a historic commercial structure listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2004. Built between 1916 and 1917, it features a distinctive Tudor Revival architectural style with brownish brick and Indiana Limestone trim. The building was commissioned by John Munro Longyear, a prominent figure in the region's mining and timber industries, who also served as the mayor of Marquette.

Today, it serves as office space while preserving its rich history, making it an interesting site for tourists and researchers alike.
