Take a look at Grand Marais past... and Grand Marais present!  We'll be updating this page from time to time with old photos of Grand Marais and how it looks at present from approximately the same vantage point.

Note: These pages were designed to be viewed at 800 x 600 resolution and a medium sized font.  If everything looks funky or overlaps, try adjusting your browser's font size (use the View menu at the top).  That should do the trick.

Can you date this photo?

We know it's the main street, and we're guessing maybe the 1930s? 1940s? If you have some information or can share some stories about the buildings in the photo, please email us and we'll post them here.  That little white-fronted building behind the trailer is now the Market Place gift shop; it looks like it was a "tavern" here.
