| Description |
On Monday, September15, 2014, in Grand Canyon Village, the rabbitbrush is in full bloom, however the trees are just starting to change color. Fall is approaching. NPS Photo by Michael Quinn The Santa Fe Railway Depot in Grand Canyon was completed in 1909. It is one of only three remaining log depots in the country and one of an estimated fourteen log depots ever constructed in the United States. It was designed by Santa Barbara architect Francis Wilson. The timbers are unique for a log structure. The logs are squared on three sides giving a flat surface for adjacent logs and a flat interior wall. To prevent moisture from entering, the logs are sealed with building paper wrapped around wood strips seated in grooves between the logs. This was Wilson’s only log structure and was described in a newspaper article in 1909 as being “patterned after the El Tovar Hotel.” Download park newspapers to help plan your village: <a href="http://www.nps.gov/grca/parknews/newspaper.htm" rel="nofollow">www.nps.gov/grca/parknews/newspaper.htm</a> |
