Demolition has begun on the old Michigan Maritime Museum building in South Haven. The work comes as part of the museum’s $8 million Launching a Legacy Campaign to double the size of the campus and expand programming. Demolition has started on the old Michigan Maritime Museum to make room for the construction of a new museum on its campus. The former building was the information center at the Palisades nuclear power plant during its early years, but moved from Covert to South Haven after being donated to the Maritime Museum. Demolition crews were on site Monday. You can find out more about the Michigan Maritime Museum’s plans right here.
