Michigan Central during Springtime

April 29, 2024

As Ford’s much anticipated reopening of Michigan Central Station approaches I wanted to take some photographs of the station incorporating the spring blooms. Due to the orientation of the station the front isn’t always bathed in light so I had to photograph at first light, but got there a little early to get some blue hour images that show off the dramatic lighting that has been incorporated into the facade. Enjoy!

Michigan Central is being developed by Ford Motor Company and includes work by PAU Practice for Architecture and Urbanism, Quinn Evans Architects, Mikyoung Kim Designs and Giffels Webster.
