A rainy day like today is the perfect time for this #ThrowbackThursday!

Before the Cass River upstream levee was completed in 1952 and the downstream levee was completed in 1961, it was common for our Main Dining room to experience 4-6 inches of flooding every Spring! To ensure that the restaurant could open in a limited capacity during such severe flooding, the 1948 additions of the Heritage Room, Taproom, and restrooms directly across the hall from the Taproom were built three steps higher than the rest of the facility. These steps are still in use today in two primary areas- just south of our Guest Services office, and when guests enter and exit the Original Dining Room.
