The Medford SPRR Passenger Depot is the sole remaining southern Oregon example of the masonry depot structures built by the Southern Pacific along its north-south main line during the first decade of the 20th century.

Essentially unchanged from its historic appearance, the Medford SPRR Passenger Depot retains a high degree of integrity to its original design, use of materials, and overall character. Located upon its original site and retaining a strong visual connection to the railroad tracks, the Medford SPRR Passenger Depot remains a dominant visual landmark within the core commercial area of Medford.

When we photographed the depot in 2006, it housed Porters Restaurant.
