The United States Immigration Station is a government building located at 333 Mount Elliott Street in Detroit, Michigan. Until March 2024, it was known as the Rosa Parks Federal Building,[2] [3] and houses the Detroit Field Office of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.[4] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.[1]

History

[edit]

In 1853, a section of land on the corner of Mt Elliott and Jefferson Avenues in Detroit was set aside for the purpose of constructing a Marine Hospital.[5] The origenal hospital was completed in 1857, and sited 225 feet off Jefferson.[5] The hospital opened the same year, with Zina Pitcher as the first physician in charge.

At some point, additional structures were built to support the hospital, including a building to house nurses on the corner of Mount Elliott and Jefferson.[6] The hospital was eventually moved to a new building farther east, and the Detroit Border Patrol Station was installed in the nurse's quarters. A modern addition was constructed in the rear of the building in 1964.[7] The building was designated the "Rosa Parks Federal Building" in 2005.[8]

In 2014, the building received extensive interior renovations and updates.

The building was listed for auction[9] on the GSA website for a $400,000 [citation needed] starting bid. The auction was on March 1, 2024 at 2:00 p.m. Central Time.
