Janzen House

Commissioned by William Janzen, this house has served residents of Marquette County since 1893. It was designed by Lovejoy and Demar, architects for the Old City Hall on Washington Street. Following a fire in 1983, Doris Seavoy Bullock donated the building to a private nonprofit organization guided by a board of directors. With the strong support of the "SAVE THE JANZEN COMMITTEE" and volunteers, the facility was renovated and reopened in 1984 to provide transitional housing. Continued generosity from citizens and organizations in the area has helped assure that housing with dignity remains the hallmark of the Janzen House.
