Significance: An economically constructed service building associated with expanding technology at Coast Guard and Lifesaving Service Stations in the Great Lakes region in the first half of the 20th century. In an unusual combination of functions, it housed a two-vehicle garage and an electrical generator (later electrical panels) for radio towers, fog signals, and beacons on the site from 1932 to date.
