Ninth District Lighthouse Depot
In 1891, Congress appropriated $35,000 for the construction of a supply depot at St. Joseph's harbor. Plans for the depot were prepared by the ninth district engineer, Major William Ludlow of the US Army Corps of Engineers. Construction of the depot began in 1891, and work was eventually completed in early 1893 on the storehouse, keeper's house, and carpenter-lampist shop. A storehouse/shop building on the grounds was likely built in 1909/10. The depot was used for receiving, overhauling, and storing buoys and their appendages, and was charged with delivering supplies to the lighthouse keepers in the district.
