(Note: this has been reposted to correct the name of the Howard Brown Public Safety Building)
After a pair of delays, the Chicago and Alton Train Depot finally made its move on Friday morning in downtown Blue Springs.
Patton Building and House Moving Inc. of Kansas relocated the historic one-story building from its present location off Main Street to Central Park, about a quarter of a mile away.
At the new site across the street from the Howard Brown Public Safety Building, Mary Potter, the Blue Springs Historical Society president who was instrumental in the drive to raise funds to get the building moved, was honored by Mayor Carson Ross and state Rep. Jeanie Lauer on the building’s new foundation.
