Hotel Janzen
The Hotel Janzen, also known as the Janzen Hotel,〔 is a former railroad hotel at 146 West Spring Street in Marquette, Michigan. Since 1984, it has operated as a low-income shelter known as the Janzen House. Built in the early 1890s, it is listed on the register of Michigan State Historic Sites.
==History==
Designed by Marquette architectural firm Lovejoy and Demar,〔 the Hotel Janzen was built in either 1890〔 or 1893.〔 The railroad hotel was conveniently located near the Duluth, South Shore and Atlantic Railway (DSS&A) Depot. The hotel had 34 rooms and was advertised as having modern features such as "hot and cold water". Its first proprietor was William M. Janzen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/28133392@N02/6303913807/in/set-72157628032021432 )〕
In summer 1977, the hotel began receiving condemnation notices for failing to meet health and safety standards. A fire in 1983 damaged the Janzen to the point that its demolition seemed likely. However, a newly formed committee called "Save the Janzen" renovated the building after they raised $30,000 plus matching funds from the city. The building was purchased by the committee in January 1984 from owner Doris M. Bullock and began operation as the non-profit Janzen House, a shelter "for potentially homeless people" in the Marquette area. The shelter can house around 30 people.〔
The building was listed as a Michigan State Historic Site on May 8, 1984, for its architectural significance and as a reminder of Marquette's boom years.
